How to Identify and Fix Common Gardening Problems ?
We provide a variety of viewpoints on how to identify and fix common gardening problems. Our sources include academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays from experienced gardeners :
3 Days After Application: Lawn grasses, herbs, vegetables, and fruits. 12 Months After Application: Ornamental flowers, trees, and shrubs. 4 Months After Application: Ornamental bedding plants, trees, shrubs, sod, and seed.
Wait one day before replanting all ornamental flowers, trees and shrubs. Lawn grasses, herbs, vegetables, and fruits may be planted three days after application.
It degrades at a relatively rapid rate in most soils, with half-life estimated between 7 and 60 days [12]. Many studies have indicated that the presence of glyphosate in the soil can enhance microbial activity [32,33], while some studies have also shown the toxic effects of glyphosate on soil microorganisms [34].
Small sprayers – mix 6.3ml of Roundup Ultra®MAX with every 1L of water. Apply to completely wet the foliage but not to run-off. Roundup Ultra®MAX may be used to control a wide range of brushweeds and woody plants.
Kill Weeds Before Planting
Before adding plants or seeds to your in-ground vegetable or herb garden, reach for Roundup® Weed & Grass Killer Concentrate Plus. Simply spray the entire planting area to kill any existing weeds, wait 3 days, then go ahead and plant to your heart`s content.
You may rototill your garden to dig under existing weeds or you can spray out the garden with a non-selective herbicide such as glyphosate (Round-up). You should do this well before you plan to plant.
Glyphosate residues in soil affect crop plant germination and growth.
According to Robert Kremer, phosphorus-rich soil can result in glyphosate teaching into the groundwater and contaminating it. Roundup is also believed to poison the helpful microorganisms in the soil. Kremer said the glyphosate leaches into the plants through the roots.
Make sure that children stay away from all pesticides and areas recently treated with pesticides. Do not let children or pets play on or touch lawns, gardens, golf courses, parks, or other grassy areas after weed killer is applied until 24 hours have passed since it was applied, or until after a rainfall or watering.
Glyphosate`s half-life (the time it takes for half of the active ingredient to degrade) is between 3 days and 19 weeks depending on water conditions. Glyphosate disperses rapidly in water so dilution occurs quickly, thus moving water will decrease concentration, but not half-life.
Apply a solution of 400 ml ROUNDUP PRO BIACTIVE per 1 litre of water. Applications of lime, fertiliser, farmyard manure and pesticides should be delayed until 5 days after application of Roundup Pro Biactive.
RATE: 10mL per litre of water. Apply when weeds are actively growing. Apply to ensure complete and uniform wetting of foliage. Visible symptoms may take from 3 to 7 days to develop.
This article in The New York Times explains the negative effects glyphosate has on soil, effects that include compaction and resultant runoff, the killing of beneficial microbes and bacteria, and the exhaustion of necessary minerals and other nutrients that plants require.

Roundup superconceterte mixing – Roundup "" Weed & Grass Killer
ANSWER : I assume you are talking mixing ratios. In most cases a 1% roundup to water mixture will kill many plants. On very stubborn species you can go to a 2% concentrate but anything above that in my opinion you’re just wasting your money. More isn’t always better when it comes to weed killers.
