How Soon To Plant After Using Roundup?
So long? Glyphosate has not been out long enough for anything to have
evolved significant resistance. If you cannot support your diatribes with legitimate science then you should shut up. Or take your rants to alt.gardens.religious.superstioutions.instead.of.s cience There is no legitimate science that supports your statements against glyphosate. It is widely considered to be among the safest and most environmentally friendly agricultural chemicals. I'd prefer everyone used chemicals like glyphosate instead of the truly noxious "organic" insecticides like rotenone and pyrethrum which are highly toxic and deadly to fish. But because god made them in plants, or some such idiotic rationale, they are holy while truly effective and safe agrichemicals like glyphosate are the work of satan.
