Universal means for the destruction of weeds "Roundup": instructions for use
This preparation is produced in the form of a liquid that contains glyphosate acting as an active ingredient and special surfactants that help to keep glyphosate on the surface and its better penetration into leaves and shoots. Due to such a complex influence, the Roundup (application instruction confirms this) effectively affects both underground and overground parts of plants, and provides complete destruction of dicotyledonous, gramineous, annual and perennial weeds.
After direct application, the active and auxiliary substances present in the composition of this herbicide are completely absorbed by the tissues within four to six hours. Then, after five to seven days, the preparation "Roundup" (the instruction for use on this also indicates) spreads to the roots of plants, disrupting the synthesis of amino acids and thus causing the death of the plant.
At the same time, the first signs of the action of glyphosate (yellowing and wilting of the leaves) become visible within five to ten days after the use of the herbicide. Weeds are completely destroyed after two to three weeks after treatment.
If we consider the main features of the use of this drug, it should first of all be noted that spraying is recommended to be carried out in windless weather during the period of intensive plant growth. Rain, which has gone less than six hours after treatment, can completely wash off the chemical from the leaves and significantly reduce the effect. In addition, do not during the first five to seven days after spraying to loosen the soil, because it is at this time penetrates the roots of the drug "Roundup". The instructions for use also emphasize that in order to avoid the death of cultivated plants, the latter should be covered with a film. In addition, do not use spray guns with fine spray during the work. Finally, it must always be remembered that plants are more sensitive to the action of the "Roundup" preparation in the second half of the summer.
