Got a few weeds i have to get rid ov basically its an overgrown bit thats been left by the looks of things ??

So whats the best weedkiller ??

I am planning on building an extension were the weeds are so really just want rid for a year

So any ideas

Cheers

 

Tumbleweed or Roundup.

 

Sodium Chlorate

 

ST AYE, I hear that dog wee is a good weed killer.Have you got a dog?
The other one is>




HTH

 

Roundup - works a treat & leaves no residue in the soil (which is why you can use the same ground for growing things a year later even though in this case you don't want to)... I even know a few eco-warrior-tree-hugger types who have used it on occasions. Me, for example.

 

Weedkillers are bad for the enviroment.

 

Or throw a bit of old carpet or similar over the patch for a few weeks. Should knock out everything (well all above ground growth anyway) until extension starts?

 

so are cars, don't suppose you walk everywhere

 

Napalm.












Or Roundup if your local garden centre won't sell you any napalm

 

best weedkiller IMHO is "drunkenpikie" introduce the weeds to him for a couple of threads and ANYTHING will lose the will to live

 

Another vote for Sodium Chlorate if you don't plan to plant again, which it seems you don't. It's harsh but effective and cheap as chips too.

 

Thanks y'all !!

 

yeah def roundup


sodium chlorate would kill your grass and all and u wont be able to grow anything on it for months

 

So does Roundup, there is a bare patch on my lawn that bares testimony to this!

 

Months of meticulous care and attention, then go on holiday for two weeks.

Works every time with us

 

I use Path Clear - but don't get it on anything you want to keep!

 

So true

What makes me smile is back lawn with some bare patches but front driveway with concrete block paving has healthy grass trying to grow through the blocks!!

 

Round up is excellent - alternatively I can be hired to whiff my arm pits around said weeds...

 

paraquat or diaquat are usually pretty good..

roundups a con... kills flowers superbly but the bloody weed keeps on growing...

Oh good, I'm not the only one who has weeds that thrives on Roundup then!
