Roundup^® Ultra

How to use

Although not a requirement, as good practice, we recommend wearing waterproof gloves and gardening footwear.

This easy mix liquid concentrate formulation is approved for use all around the garden, on gravel areas, paths, drives and along fences. It can be used to clean up weedy areas before planting vegetables, flowers, shrubs and to renovate overgrown areas. Apply using a garden sprayer.

Roundup® Ultra is inactivated on contact with the soil and is then broken down by micro-organisms to allow replanting the following day.

Keep children and pets away from treated areas until spray has dried.

Where to use

Roundup® Ultra controls annual weeds and most perennial weeds and trees around the garden and on areas not intended to bear vegetation such as hard surfaces, patios, drives, tarmac, paths and gravel areas. It can be used to clean up weedy ground before planting vegetables, flowers, bushes and trees, and to renovate overgrown areas. Direct spray away from ponds and other surface water bodies.

DO NOT USE ON WANTED PLANTS. DO NOT USE ON AREAS OF LAWN UNLESS YOU WANT TO KILL IT. DO NOT USE UNDER POLYTHENE OR GLASS.

When to use

Apply as a foliar spray to weeds and saplings at any time when the weeds are actively growing and have adequate leaf area to absorb the spray.

Freshly cut tree stumps and standing trees should be treated from November to March, to avoid the period of active sap flow in spring/early summer.

Avoid spraying when rain is imminent. Rain within 6 hours of spraying may reduce effectiveness, so repeat treatment may be necessary.

Avoid spraying in windy conditions, as spray drift to lawns and other wanted plants will damage or destroy them. Avoid all other spray contact with cultivated plants. If cultivated plants are treated by mistake, IMMEDIATELY AND THOROUGHLY wash off the weedkiller with ample water.
