Scotts Roundup Weedkiller

Scotts Roundup Weed killer is actually part of the Miracle Gro group which I didn't realise until recently. I suppose it makes sense for Miracle Gro to avoid putting their name to a full-on weed killer though! This stuff really does have brilliant results and is one I've happily used on many occasions over the years. Recently they bought it out in a handy pump dispenser which makes getting the weeding done an absolute doddle. It's not really aimed at small gardens I don't think as it comes in a huge container but definitely one for new home owners who've inherited a jungle I think. It's a bit expensive to buy compared to other brands ...  Read the complete review

Co-accused deny murder! Bill and Ben, otherwise known as ?The flower pot men?, both denied having anything to do with the killing of Weeeeeeed. They were both apprehended last night after the grisly remains of little Weeeed were found in the garden, Police refuse to reveal just how little Weeeeed met her demise but our reporter was told that she was found ?all shrivelled up and limp and had a nasty brown hue where once she was radiant in green? Weeeeed?s death has come as a shock to all who knew her, she has had many attempts on her life over the years but has always pulled through, even when she was almost ...  Read the complete review

The story so far... Moved in to a flat with a nightmare garden that I needed to get back in to shape. Tried to take the easy way out and weedkiller virtually all of it but didn't know which was the best weedkiller to use so bought a few and decided to test each on a separate patch of garden. What follows is an account of my experiences with Roundup. Having applied Weedol to one part of the garden (see op in the Weedol section), the next one on the list was Roundup. Whereas Weedol had come as soluble granules in pre-packed sachets, the Roundup came as liquid, stored in a green bottle with a graduated cap for measuring out the contents. The liquid itself is ...  Read the complete review

Weedkilling, eh? Have we come to this finally, the grim and very slippery slope into middle age has got me - when you write about weedkilling you know it's only a short step to slippers and hairs in your nose and ears. Ah well, at least dementia and absent mindedness are about to set in too, so I will easily forget about the doom awaiting ... ermm, what was I talking about, pastry? Oh yes, weedkilling, I'm glad you asked me that one. Now there are two schools of thought on this one - mine and everyone who agrees with me, and them losers who have a different view. Let's start with the losers first, or they'll just whinge that ...  Read the complete review

Earlier this year we replanted our entire front lawn. It needed completely clearing as previously it was over grown with loads of large brushes and shrubs. Now we have never really done gardening before, we are only in our early 20's. So clearing it was our first objective, and then all we were going to do was re sow the lawn with fresh seeds and have a plain garden. 4 to 5 months past and we had a wonderful green fresh looking garden, we were very proud of ourselves. Unfortunately the expected happened and a few weeds started growing, so we looked at week killer. Round up had been advertised loads on TV, so being a novice gardener we bought this. ...  Read the complete review
