willum 89 Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 Round Up or glyphocate from garden centres As Above, But not from a Garden Centre....They offer you a weaker concentrate....Much more expensive too. Try and get some of the 'real' stuff from a farmer, or farm supplier...Much more potent! I have got mine from one the farms I shoot on once a year generally does it for me om in battle with ivey at the moment Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nik_B 3,790 Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 Nik B ..I found the best way with that bind weed (I had tons of the shite ) roundup ,which knocks it down then I let it grow up canes & roundup again . According to gardener ,who told me the idea is to get a bit of leaf to absorb more weedkiller , it took about 10 goes to get rid of it completely .My mate made the mistake of trying to dig it up ...spread it all over the place I also made that mistake, I tried to pull it out by the stems when it was small shoots and it spread everywhere. Last year I hit it with roundup but I started a bit late when the plants were growing slower in autumn. Going to hammer the hell out of it this year and hope I can put a dent in to it. Problem is that it comes under the fence from next doors I'll try the garden cane idea, sounds like it will work better and it will help it get more sun and grow faster so it should get the poison to the roots better.

Outlaw Pete 2,224 Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 Where are you getting your Round-up.?...i can never get it. Lab, that's crazy! I would have thought, " Oh, yeah. I got mine in the farmers store. " But, only yesterday I was in town and went in the bog standard hardware shop. Counter was buried under Roundup! There's no reason it should be tricky to get hold of. It's just a completely harmless, every day weed killer. Not like paraquat or something. Can't for the life of me work out why they're keeping it away from you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Outlaw Pete 2,224 Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 Just how I buy it, Cookie. Off the counter at a few shops in town. Landlord of my local doses the pavement outside his place, every year. Lead up to the Tidy Towns thing. It's just another of these vexing examples of how you or I may need to show all sorts of bits of paper, to buy certain gear we use. Pass exams and all sorts to get them. Then, some thick f**k simply has to say, " Aye. Oim eh Faaaarmer! ". And they shovel him as much as he wants. Because, by birth right, he'd deemed a " Professional User ". Farcical, isn't it?
