About this deal

One thing to note about this weed killer is that it doesn’t work especially fast. To kill the roots, it needs around 3-4 weeks. While the weeds do start to wilt within a few hours, it takes 7 days before I actually felt the weed killer was working! Despite the slower results, it does work as well as others on the market, and it’s very easy to use.

Roundup ProActive is a systemic penetrant total herbicide containing 360 g/l glyphosate for the control of annual & perennial grasses and most broad-leaved weeds on ground prior to the planting of crops, around amenity vegetation, in forests and on tree stumps, for destruction of grassland, and on hard, permeable and natural surfaces. Five litres of Roundup ProActive 360 covers 0.5 ha to 3.8 ha at a rate of 1.3-10 L/ha. This easy mix liquid concentrate formulation is approved for use all around the garden, on gravel areas, paths, drives and along fences. It can be used to clean up weedy areas before planting vegetables, flowers, shrubs and to renovate overgrown areas. Apply by using a garden sprayer. By law, everyone who uses pesticides professionally must have received adequate training in using pesticides Weed killer uses chemicals (herbicides) to control, limit and stop plant growth. The actual chemicals in the formulation can vary depending on the brand and the type of weed killer in question. Consider using a Weed Wiper in areas where spray drift could cause damage to neighbouring non-target plants.The weed killer needs to be diluted. Then, the diluted product can be sprayed or applied directly to the stem of the weeds. This makes it possible to avoid getting weed killer on other plants. For conventional vehicle mounted or handheld spray equipment, apply at a rate of 1.3-10 l/ha in 80-400 l/ha using a medium spray quality nozzle. Roundup ProActive is a foliar applied systemic penetrant total herbicide. Roundup contains glyphosate which moves systemically within the plant to give highly effective control of unwanted vegetation during phases of active plant growth.

Stopping Protein Production. Protein production is another essential element of plant growth and health. Some weed killers stop plants from being able to produce proteins. Ultimately this will kill weeds. Glyphosate works this way; however, do your research before using products which contain Glyphosate – is has been shown to have negative effects on health. Gloves are essential as the weedkiller gets over the nozzle, and this nozzle needs to be adjusted by hand This is not necessarily due to any shortcoming of the herbicide itself, but related to how plants absorb moisture. Most plants absorb more moisture in the cool temperatures of the early morning, but stop when temperatures rise in the afternoon. Results are slower than they are with other weed killers, around 3 - 4 weeks for the roots to be killedPelargonic acid is the most commonly found active ingredient in organic weed killers. It’s a naturally occurring acid in geraniums. This acid is generally considered effective at controlling the growth of smaller broadleaf weeds (under 15 cm tall).

Pumping the handle creates pressure in the container, and when the button on the wand is pressed, the weed killer travels through the hose and out of the nozzle. The output can be adjusted, producing either a spray or a fine jet.
