  • Asked by Kara from Dacula, Ga

    Q
    Would Roundup QuickPro kill black bamboo?
    A

    Using a Roundup or stump killer product containing Glyphosate has been successful in killing black bamboo. Please take a look at the following steps below and product recommendations and let us know if you have any questions.

    Step 1. Cut the bamboo down to soil level in late winter and wait for new shoots to grow back in late spring/ early summer. Bamboo herbicide won't be effective if the canes of the bamboo are well-developed.

    Step 2. Using a shovel, cut off any underground rhizomes when new shoots start to grow back. Break up as many clumps of rhizomes as possible.

    Step 3. Apply Roundup QuickPro (Glyphosate) Herbicide to the leaves, stalks, and shoots of the bamboo. Glyphosate herbicide only kills the plants that it comes into direct contact with. This means that you'll need to be careful about applying it only to the bamboo. Most glyphosate herbicides need to be sprayed onto the leaves, stalks, and shoots of the plant and allowed enough time to penetrate before any water dilutes it.

    (If you have desirable vegetation surrounding the black bamboo, you can use a paint brush and "paint" the stalks and leaves of the bamboo.)

    Step 4. Stump Killer Option:  Alternately, use a stump and root killer on the bamboo. Another way to mow down bamboo in its tracks is to cut down the canes and then apply a stump and root killer containing triclopyr to the foliage of any regrowth and to the cut stump.

    Hi Yield Triclopyr Ester Ultra

    Step 5. Repeat treatment:  One application won't eradicate the infestation; bamboo is tough and has a tendency to spread like wildfire.  As the bamboo continues to send up shoots, you'll need to continually apply the herbicide treatment to the leaves, stalks, and shoots of the plant in order to properly exterminate it.  You should also use this herbicide method in conjunction with rooting out the rhizomes of the bamboo, so that it doesn't keep sending up shoots.

    Q
    Do I need to drill holes in Wisteria stump to apply?
    Stump is wrapped around a River Birch and I am not allowed to kill this tree.
    A
    If you want to selectively kill something then you would want to drill holes into the stump or use the cut stump method.  This means you cut the stump to expose fresh pulp and immediately treat.  You may want to try a brush and stump killer product like Fertilome Brush and Stump Killer.

    Q
    What kills torpedo grass in St Augustine turf?
    A

    St. Augustine is very sensitive turf species and torpedo grass is very hard to treat. We apologize, but we are not aware of a product that will treat torpedo grass and not harm St. Augustine turf.  You may want to consider spot treating with RoundUp and then reseed/resod the treated areas.

    Q
    What is the shelf life of Roundup QuikPRO after mixing?
    I like to have a bottle of weed killer on hand for the occasional weed that pops up.
    A

    Once mixed the shelf life of Round Up Quick Pro is only 24 hours so any mixed solution would need to be used in that time frame for effectiveness and to avoid any issues with clogging or corroding your sprayer.

    Q
    What to use when trying to eliminate Bahiagrass in my Centipede lawn?
    A
    Due to how similar the two turf blends are when being affected by herbicides, there is not one that will remove bahiagrass from the centipede lawn without also hurting the centipede. The best methods are to spot treat with a product like RoundUp QuikPro and then reseed heavily with centipede to try and smother out any chance of the bahiagrass creeping back in.

  • Asked by Thomas from Youngstown,ohio
    07/30/2014
    Q
    How long will the aera sprayed stay dead
    A
    RoundUp QuickPro is only going to last 2 weeks in the soil. It is only meant to kill the weed it is applied to, so repeat appliations might be necessary. In order to prevent before the weeds emerge, you will want to look at applying a pre-emergent before germination. Depending on the weeds your are trying to treat, there are some pre-emergents you can apply in the fall, but most are applied in Feb/March before spring. We recommend contacting your Master Gardener for assistance on the best time of year to apply pre-emergents and post emergents in your county.

    Q
    Which herbicide would work best for me?
    I would like some information on which Herbicide would work best for me. I live in the mountains in northern VA and I would like to know what will kill pretty much whatever I spray. I have fences and really steep banks that have grass, weeds, small bushes and some brush. Would also like to know how many gallons it makes and if it is pet and animal safe
    A
    If you are seeking a non-selective post-emergent herbicide that will brush, grass, weeds and anything sprayed directly we would suggest RoundUp QuikPro. If you do not wish to harm your turgrass, please let us know the type of grass and weeds that you will be treating. We can find you a selective herbicide that fits your needs.

    Q
    What do you use to get rid of carpetgrass?
    A

    Unfortunately, we do not have a selective herbicide to kill carpetgrass in another turfgrass. You can use a non-selective herbicide such as RoundUp QuikPro to spot treat the carpetgrass and then reseed or resod as needed in any bare spots.

    Q
    How close to my centipede grass yard should I spray this product?
    I want to use as a barrier herbicide between my yard and field in my backyard. Worried that it will seep into the soil and kill grass nearby.
    A
    Roundup QuikPRO is not volatile in the soil which means that it does not move in the soil and stays exactly where it was sprayed. As long as you do not get any over-spray on any untargeted grass/plants foliage then those untargeted grass/plants will not be harmed.

    Q
    What can be used to remove bermudagrass from my Bahia Grass lawn?
    I live in west coast central florida. I have a bahia lawn that was really nice, then a type of bermuda has pretty much taken over. is there anything i can do to get my lawn back? Thanks in advance.
    A

    Unfortunately, there are not a lot of options out there for removing bermuda grass from bahia lawns, as these are very similar grasses.  Typically, anything that will kill the bermuda will also harm the bahia.   It is usually recommended to spot treat the bermuda as much as possible with a product like Roundup QuikPro, and then replant with bahia in those areas in a couple of weeks when the bermuda is gone.

    Q
    How can I kill torpedo grass without killing my centipede lawn?
    A

    Unfortunately, most of the herbicides will only suppress the torpedograss for a short time, but will not kill it completely. It is recommended to spot treat the torpedo grass with a non-selective herbicide such as Round Up Quick Pro and then re-seed or re-sod in those areas.

  • Asked by Frank
    03/15/2010
    Q
    I live in Jax, Florida and I need a spreadable product to get rid of dollar weed.
    A
    We carry Roundup Quick Pro and Ranger Pro Herbicides. Glyphosate, the active ingredient in both Roundup and Ranger, is a non-selective herbicide that should be used with caution. Do not allow glyphosate spray mist to contact ornamental foliage or severe injury will occur. A cardboard shield may be used to prevent glyphosate spray from drifting to nearby ornamentals. Glyphosate is more effective when weeds are actively growing and should not be applied under drought conditions. As with all pesticides, read and follow all label instructions and precautions. For all over lawn treatments we recommend contacting your Local Cooperative Extension Office for advice.
