Monthly guide to Roundup - February

 

February

  • Sweep and clean paths, patios and drives so debris does not form a seed bed for weeds. Control weeds between pavers or on paths and driveways with Roundup Fast Action
  • Continue treating weeds around the garden with Roundup.
  • Some weeds are also hosts for insects that may decimate vegetables, so keep the vegie patch clear too
  • Summer prune roses to encourage an autumnal flush of growth and blooms – cut lightly!
  • Take semi-mature cuttings of evergreen shrubs – current season’s growth with a heel of older wood will strike best
  • Harvest fruits and vegetables as they ripen – don’t allow them to over-ripen or rot as they may harbour pests and diseases
  • After heavy spring and summer use, service your lawn mower (hose out underneath, sharpen and tighten or replace blades, change oil and spark plug) and clean all other tools
  • Sow seeds of winter vegetables in seed trays and keep moist but not wet.
 

Why have weeds re-grown after several weeks?

Only deep-rooted rhizomatous weeds may re-grow. This will only happen if too little Roundup has been allowed to penetrate the full plant system. In this instance, a re-treatment will be required.

Why has it killed the grass?

Because Roundup is a non selective weedkiller, that means that Roundup is very effective at killing all plants. So be careful to only spray weeds or plants that you don’t want to keep.

Can it be used on paving?

Yes definitely, Roundup is ideal for use on paving, paths and drives as it penetrates right to the weeds roots to ensure a complete kill.
