Roundup Optima+ Total Weedkiller

Product Information

To be effective, Roundup does not have to be administered on a sunny day. Roundup will be absorbed by the plant’s leaves as long as they are actively developing (green, not dormant). It can be applied throughout the day. When it comes to applying Roundup, an overcast day is just as beneficial as a bright day. This is why: Modern formulations of Roundup are highly active and provide the highest levels of uptake and translocation leading to improved speed, rain fastness and efficacy. This metabolic pathway is present only in green plants. Higher forms of life like mammals, birds, fish and insects are dependent on plant sources to obtain these three amino-acids in their food and neither absorb nor metabolise glyphosate. This is the reason Roundup has such environmentally friendly characteristics. Our formulation chemists have worked continually since the launch of Roundup to bring out new formualtions with improved weed control, leass restrictive conditions of use and better safety profiles under COSHH.

Those brown, lifeless weeds will remain to be an eyesore if you don’t. Furthermore, if the weeds were nearing maturity when you sprayed them, dead weeds may still shed seeds, causing new weeds to sprout. When Roundup is given to moist plants, the water dilutes it.

Even today, when you hear the word “Roundup”, you’re probably thinking of the original weed killer, which is still a favorite option among gardeners.

The weed killers in the Roundup arsenal are promoted to treat anything from weedy flower beds and vegetable gardens to unwanted woody plants and weeds in lawns. Once applied to the leaf uptake occurs within 1-6 hours and glyphosate moves through the phloem both downwards and upwards within 5 days. It tends to accumulate in the growing points, then evens up throughout the plant, leading to a gradual loss of green colour followed by death between one and four weeks later.

Use any Roundup chemical on a windless, sunny day with temperatures over 60F and no rain in the forecast for the greatest effects. Cover the targeted plant fully with the herbicide and protect desired plants with a piece of cardboard or anything similar to keep the spray away from them. If you mistakenly spray a plant, rapidly rinse it with water to remove the herbicide. To protect the environment, avoid using herbicides near a body of water, a storm drain, a ditch, or a gutter where runoff happens. Although pure glyphosate has minimal toxicity, most glyphosate-containing products also include additional compounds that might make the product more harmful. Despite the fact that most herbicides are absorbed fairly rapidly and the connections created inside are permanent, animals should not eat Roundup-treated plants.
