The glyphosate saga ended well. One of the neighbours asked what I

garden - it must have been the drought (not noticing that all other
gardens were unaffected).

Thanks for the reminder.

Just had a have a look at the tree that I gave a good dosing of
glyphosate about 8 weeks ago.

All the leaves are drooping and it does not look happy.

My sister-in-law says it needs some rain or watering in to ensure it
gets absorbed by the roots. May be wrong of course.



It got a 20mm hole drilled into the trunk and the glyphosphate poured
into the hole. The rain seems to have done its job.

I was told you needed to cut the bark off a tree anout 5 inches or so all aroundas most of the nutrients flow through the bark to the leaves removing the bark kills the tree but only slowly. That way you don't need chemicals.

But very obvious.

Ah I didn't know the aim was to murder it.

Indeed. The ****ers that own it have not given me permission to kill it.
