Best all-around (kills EVERYTHING) weed/grass killer?

[CEHollier]

Diesel cut with motor oil. Works like a charm. Unless the neighbors call the EPA. LOL

 

[jimdana1942]

Get a pair of long nose pliers and get on your hands and knees and delicately pull each weed out by its roots.

'That's the only way I know that might work.

The stuff that I've found works the best out of all the expensive brands is Spectracide Concentrate with an ounce of Liquid Stik(Low Foam Detergent). This stuff contains
Diquat Dibromide and provides the fastest kill next to CoonAss Roundup(Diesel). After application you will see serious death process proof within 3-4 hours and after a day in the sun you will see complete lay-over and this stuff hates everything! Weeds and grass! Even kills Wasps Fast, but I found out how old I was when I had to take off running with a full backpack sprayer.

Since I've been away from home for two years and my wife was left to do ALL YARD work...This is what I showed her out to mix and one 32oz bottle lasts the entire summer.
$16

I used to have a Hookup for "Campaign" which was just the most concentrated RoundUp (42%) and 2-4-D (46.4%) that seemed to work great until they changed that route and after spending lots of $$$ I stuck with this stuff.

They do sell a small trial size bottle that will get you through a full sprayer dose that's fairly cheap.

P.S. I'm waiting on my Offer Letter from SHAW in BTR any day now and should be home Mid July after Two Years in Greenville, SC and 9 trips to Afghanistan!!!

Diesel if you don't mind the smell.

I use generic Roundup Glyphosate. The patient ran out on the brand Roundup so you can buy it now for less than a arm and a leg.
You can go to Tractor Supply or some other farm supply store and get a pretty good price on the generic stuff just look for 41% Glyphosate. That's what Roundup started out with, they started watering it down so they wouldn't scare the city folks with the price, so they bought it and just had to use twice as much.
And don't weed eat your stuff first, spray it when it's good and green and let it start dying before you cut it down
You can then go plant something there if you want it doesn't sterilize the ground

You never sent me your resume.

buy a bag of pool salt, pour it in a 5gal bucket. add warm water until the salt is dissolved. pour heavily where you want nothing to grow. it will kill everything.

or if it was rainy you could just dump the salt straight on the ground.

It was two days later that the call came from them for a final interview and I got the verbal. Now I feel like a real Pr!ck for not following up and letting you know till now!
I'm still a little in shock that it may be almost over... It's been a Rough Road since 2009!

No worries buddy! We'll be glad to have you back in town.

You can swing by and pick up my backpack sprayer, I'll put some good stuff in it, and all you'll have to do is fill er' up with water and start sprayin.

 

[Hitman]

Mix your weed killer with Dawn soap then spray.

 

[headshot]

I used to spray that same mixture at all road crossings & meter stations, when I was working on the pipeline. It takes 7 to 10 days. Be patient.... You ever heard the story of the old bull and the young bull?

If this stuff is still green by Sunday I'll be giving you a call.

No problem. in the future if you want it dead QUICK, add some scythe herbicide in the mix and when you are finished spraying, go back to where you started at and you can see it already working.

 

[LACamper]

No one mentioned vinegar?

Bleach works very well also, even on poison ivy.

 

[headshot]

Straight bleach or can you cut it with water?

 

[whitsend]

Mix the Eraser 3 oz per gallon and give it about 4 days.

 

[whbonney26]

I use the hi yield KILLZ ALL and it works wonders.

That's the same as 41% Roundup.

Find someone commercial (golf course, large landscape company, etc) that has full strength round up, mix it at about 50% and add some liquid fertilizer. It kills all.

You can occasionally find the good stuff in smaller containers, but it is mostly is sold in 55 gallon containers.
