I bought a 4 gallon container of Roundup from my rural Coop store this weekend. Wow $175 ouch !
Anyway I took a look at the 60 page instruction manual trying to find the simple instructions on what ratio of roundup to water I would use to hand spray my vegetable garden.
I turned the vegetable garden last fall (its 30 ft x 30ft ) but now that spring I see the clover is quickly sprouting the fairly black clay loam . So I figured roundup followed a week or two later by tilling with my new Agri 40" tiller. (tiller arrives next week ya!)
But no simple instructions in that Roundup book ! I suspect its a 10 to one ratio and just spray on a sunny day (with sun forecast for next 48 hours) But now I am not so sure how much of this ratio to put on garden when I am using a backpack sprayer. Do I just make moist and keep moving spray wand ? How many gallons of my mix would do that area ?
Any suggestions ???
