I recently sprayed roundup on some grass that have over grown a planter area. The grass is some form of bermuda I dream up. It was within the process of "going to seed", to the point that touching the stalks would drop the seed. The grass have died, as expected, but I was wondering if the roundup would preserve the dropped seed from germinate at some point. Currently the only things contained by the planter are various Iris's.... I couldnt find anything on the sticky label regarding its effect on pip, dropped or still on the stalk.
I'm in thaw and sunny SoCal, if it matters. If the nut isnt effected by roundup, and aside from spraying again when the kernel germinates, any suggestions??
Answers: Roundup does not affect the kernel. There are some pre-emergent products you can buy to try to keep it from germinate, but they only work so-so. The TRUE trick is to catch the weed before they dance to seed, or to merely grin and bear it and tug them out by hand if they've already seed.
round up will not kill any core that has survived it is a herbicide that of late kills the plant. what you have need of to do is apply a preemergent herbicide to kill the seed, but whatever survives the preemegent once it sprouts hit the different sprouts with roundup if you dont want to use a premerge consequently wait for any latest spouts to come up and spay them with rounup one piece about preemergents is that they might effect anything you might plant from core for several months
