Who said "dump' the Roundup in the water? You spray it on the leaves.


I guess it’s all PPM, and a surfactant may help with cutting the surface tension for proper application, but at the end of the day, Lilly pads are quite hydrophobic. Even if you spot spray each pad, rest assured some of it is ending up in the waterway. If the water is big and movin, maybe not a big deal. Small and “stagnant”, might not be so good.

Just to be sure, the regular round up (sold at Home Depot) kills fish......

Only if you use too much.

Used in moderation, it kills pads just fine and does not kill fish.

‘’Roundup’’ used to be the common name for glyphosate. Round up the brand makes all sorts of product, I’m not saying the aquatic version which looks to have a very high amount of glyphosate will kill fish, but it’s known to kill us with cancer if used wrong. It’s very common now in at, but with very very accurate spray rigs that apply it in just the right places between rows of mostly corn and soybean.

Now round up ready kbg and st aug is probably pretty cool, bravo Scott’s
