Natural weed remedy goes badly

Thus goes to show, not everyone has common sense. If a spark was all it took to set off a fire, then it was too bloody dry out and it should have never been used.

It’s still pretty hard to get Round up lit. <g>

Just because it’s not visable you can still damage your neighbours property (and health) with Round Up through tresspassing drift.

Nope.

I still stand by my boiling water method. Just put on the tea kettle, and cook the weeds. Skip the roundup or anything else Monsanto is touting.

I’m a small fan of Roundup type products as they are extremely handy where spot applications are necessary.
I’m not in favor just yet of the drenching of the soil as it is being used in forestry and agriculture today.
Placing these chemicals in the hands of an “anointed few” is going to create more problems than it solves.
When the situation warrants I am not above using boiling water. On the other hand, its a bit of problem to control bishops weed under and apple tree using this method for instance.
Mecoprop is the only sure remedy I have found for creeping Charlie well.
I do hope common sense and moderation are not bulldozed out in favour state controlled gardening.
I shudder to think what we will have if this happens.

Some of the people packing licenses can’t even spell.

I wonder how well they can read a pesticide label or anything else for that matter?
