I have about a 1200 sq ft area that's dirt with thin layer of pea gravel I want to keep clear of grass/weeds. I do regular glyphosate concentrate but stuff grows right back. RM43 would be just once a year & nothing grows back in that area? Or is something else better for that?

I don't care if nothing ever grows there, no pets or livestock there, nothing real close I care about like fruit trees or anything. This is the area in front of a shooting berm, I don't want to spend the $$$ to pave it, & I just want bare flat ground with pea gravel so it's easy to pick up brass.

I use RM43 and as long as it does not rain for a few days, the product seems to last for about 3 months or so.

Yes that would be a great product for what you describe. It is just glyphosate with imazapyr.
I would add just follow the label on rates and how to apply. This isn't a "more is better". The Imazapyr can travel through a root system and it will smoke a tree if your not careful. The RM43 is not a strong concentration but you don't want to be soaking the ground with it or using it straight near any trees or bushes you don't want to potentially harm.

I've had good success with RM43 for keeping an area clear. 12 - 24 months usually. Great for driveway seams, etc.
