Title: Roundup Gel stuff
Post by: Zaf on June 20, 2012, 05:07:40 PM
Ive been trying this stuff, so far very effective with nettles and now trying on the dreaded bindweed, will report back on the results   $£"

I wanted something I could use between other plants so I masked them off so to speak and daubed the gel on, I'll be watching very closely every day to see if they start looking ill  >:D

We thought it was a great idea - let you be the guinea pig  ()_ and if it works I will get mum and me some.

It certainly seems to work on nettles, the bindweed seems to be losing its colour but I wont celebrate till I'm certain :)

Let's hope it works, its such a good idea for getting the weeds from between plants and shrubs. X x

It definitely works but it takes a little time so patience is needed!

It certainly did the trick for me, I just dabbed it on as many leaves as I could and the horrid stuff has gone all yellow and limp now :)
