Sure. I sprayed the concrete driveway cracks and a paver walkway. Careful as I was,
about 3 inches of grass along the low side of the walkway also died.
It also shows no sign of reviving. The weeds were as long as 6 inches. The driveway needs
replacing, but I'm in no hurry to spend $4500, which is the low estimate of the 3 I got.


Thank you!


For what? He said its been a month, not until next spring. And he followed that up by saying he just went and looked at it and there is green starting to show again. Nothing unusual there or inconsistent with how roundup (Glyphosate) works. No weeds until spring is unusual unless your using the roundup product that suppresses germination for many months or you have some unusual environmental conditions. Which is why I asked which actual product you actually have, but you keep saying roundup is roundup, it's what Walmart,HD,sell and I should go look. They sell three different types, different chemicals, for very different applications and results.
