what is effective in keeping grass and broad leaf down. i'm using some stuff from the feedstore for my ditches and it seems the grass is growing back in a couple of weeks. thanks

If you can get roundup and 2-4D that will kill almost everything but cocoa grass/sedge grass. Likely if it comes back in a couple weeks what you're spraying is just a burn down chemical and not an actual weed killer.

Mixture of roundup/2-4-D will kill almost anything that grows in your yard. Mix it at about a 2% solution. Oh and get the generic roundup. I think I pay $40 for 2.5 gallons

Been wanting to ask this cuz I use round up and it's only been keeping the weeds back for about 2-3 weeks.. How long does the 2-4D/round up mixture keep weeds down?

Same problem here. I've been using Hi-Yield Killzall from True Value and it kills it quick. It just doesn't stay dead for long. I came across some ground clearer granules the other day at Lowes and thought about giving that a shot.

We probably spray Roundup/2-4D once a month. And once you get your lines established it takes very little to keep it back.

Where can you get the generic roundup?

2-4D/round up mix works the best. Most feed stores carry the generic stuff as well as home depot. The feed shop in duson has the generic roundup called cornerstone, works well.

Eraser is another generic round up type product.

Yeahh. We use cornerstone and weedar(generic 2-4D)

I buy it at Premier in Kaplan, but most feed stores and ranch supplies will have it. The brand they carry is honcho I think. The chemical is called glyphosate

how can you tell the difference and what gives you the best value for results with weed and grass killers?

im looking for killing both to control all growth in certain unaccessible areas to the lawn mower and I am not as much worried about weeds out in the lawn.

I want scorched earth dead zones you spray just once and its dead for the entire summer kind of stuff and if the neighbors cat dies I can dig a hole lol.

I was thinking about mixing a little gasoline with used motor oil but that's messy and stains concrete.

Yeah I get weedar too

2-4-D is a broadleaf herbicide and glyphosate is more for grasses, although it does work on broadleaf weeds

What he said. ^^

It all comes down to the active ingredient. Glyphosate is the active ingredient in roundup and I THINK amine is the active ingredient in 2-4D.

I used eraser from the feed store just recently and had a similar problem. The st. augustine grass at the fence lines is dead, but is now being replaced with some other kind of odd grass I am not familiar with.

Mix a little diesel and a surfactant in with your weed killer. It usually lasts a while but in prime growing season it's hard to only spray once and be done.

free shipping and priced right. Reviews on how products work and information on what to use. Just remember about spraying some of the strong chemicals around where young kids and animals will use. I buy the eraser form these people and have had good luck. The roundup used to be 41% but now some is 18%. http://store.doyourownpestcontrol.com

No, that looks more like some nutsedge.
