OMG how much acreage have you got? 1 litre will cover 1/2 an acre.
I went for 1lt Rosate - which will cover 2000 square meters - about 1/2 acre.

Also bought a 5 or 8lt? spray bottle which will go on your back - got that from Wilkinsons but they are also available from Amazon. No need to hire one as mine was either £6 or £8. Spraying the whole back garden more than thoroughly I used under 100ml.

Want to have large patio done and gravel + raised beds for veggies at the bottom as neither of us can push a lawnmower so needed to kill everything. Last year it even killed loads of that horrid knotweed which had taken over from next door - think it killed next doors too!

This 1 litre bottle should last me out once the patio etc. is done. Remember that it's 4 times as strong as concentrated roundup!

Raven - same stuff as you mentioned only a different manufacturer - same strength by the looks of it. I did the lawn & everything - it all has to go! Like the fact that if you wanted to you can replant almost immediately.

Thanks for this. It is not that I have a lot of acreage, but rather that 5l costs around £28 and 1l costs around £16, so price wise 5l works out cheaper per litre. And I can use it for a few years if I get 5l. I also have siblings who I am sure would be more than happy to share the product and costs with me.

Good morning all.

Good morning all, glorious sunny day here

I have thought about using glyphosphate for weeding, but doesn't it hang around a bit more than other weedkillers? I don't have a massive area to deal with, but need something for the boundary walls. BUT next door has a tortoise that thinks he is Houdini. I got a 3 litre bottle of roundup from Wilko for 20p at the end of last year and have been using that, next door have more or less sealed the gaps in their boundary for now anyway.

The only real problem I have is I can't use weedkiller on my garden path, which I had been hoping to use it on, my raspberries get everywhere including the path so if I use it on there I risk losing the raspberries in the garden
