Roundup questions
"SteveB" wrote in message ... I use Roundup on my 2+ acre spread. I have heard that it only kills what it comes in contact with, and doesn't work once it hits the soil. I'd like to know if it is safe to use in the garden on the weedy areas, or will it stay in there after I plant. Other suggestions for weed control that is plant friendly would be appreciated. I've had luck keeping Timothy grass at bay by using layers and layers of paper and cardboard, with mulch (leaves and grass) on top. I have to re-paper it in the fall, as the grass does tend to find a way to survive, but it keeps the grass down during the growing season. If you do this for a few seasons the grass may eventually become stressed enough that it just dies altogether. --S. |
