2020 gardens......

Experience with growth regulators like what's in Weed-B-Gon seem to indicate it works best when daytime highs get into the upper 60's and 70's. Warmer is OK too except there's more opportunity for volatile off target movement. Round Up tends to be more forgiving depending on what you're going after with it. We've sprayed many fields for annual grasses when it's cold and it's worked fine. Tougher to kill broadleaves and some perennial grasses it may be better to wait until it's warmer. And some broadleaves like giant ragweed & most waterhemp have developed resistance.

kinda what I was thinking!!!!! thanks.

i only use the roundup in the landscaping rock/ crushed granite around my house. after a while it gets old pulling weeds and when you dont get the roots they come back. works good on kwack grass too!!! I take a full bottle and dip the grass leaves id the bottle works pretty good.

No problem. Something else I just noticed in the yard here, some but not all of the dandelions took a whackin' from the frost. Their leaves are watersoaked almost like they've been sprayed with a cell membrane disruptor. Noticed a few yesterday morning like that & there were more this a.m. The dandelions aren't dead but they're not going to take up chemical very well either until they have some actively growing leaves. Weird frost. Nailed some of the dandelions but not a lot of visible frost on the grass. The dewpoint in the teens to low 20's might've had something to do with that.

Glenn,
I sprayed 4 acres of former crp that was burned off and greened back up. And the infield at our ball diamond, both with round up. About a week ago now. It is working but definitely slower with the cooler weather.

Same as Glenn.....old blankets  or sleeping bags. Sheets are to thin. Leave them on until Wednesday.....won't hurt them.

yea sometimes.........BUT as you can tell i am an avid believer in using them. to many times wether its a post or email, things can and have been taken in the wrong context, therefore an emoji lets the recipient know if hes is joking,serious, mad, or crazy!!!!!!!!
