iv treated my weeds. should i treat twice? using sbk brushwood killer.

hi guys! i treated a 7ft by 3ft part of my garden which is covered in weed. mainly nettles but also a small amount of bramble and dock and that sticky stuff that annoys you and sticks to your clothes. i used sbk brushwood killer and sprayed 500ml of correctly proportioned mix onto the lot, covering, hopefully, all of the leaves. i done this yesterday afternoon and iv went bk this morning and the are wilting. should i apply another treatment? if so when? or if not, when should i expect the weeds to be dead? should i use a watering can next time? im gonna dig them up when they are dead and lay some turf down. please help!! thank you

As the Mad Scientist said to the Honey Monster; patience little one; patience!

Ps, give it a chance to work, it is not Weedol!

Cheers!

:hehe: Yeah, patience. I think we all suffer from lack of that. Sbk works down into the roots and kills the plant that way. It takes a little time. With plants with deep tap roots (Dock etc.) it might take a second attempt. However, the beauty of SBK is that it's only effective on broad-leaved plants so you can spot-weed with it on grass. However, I would leave it a little while before you start digging up the roots. Like when all the top foliage has gone brown.:wink:

 

Do what it says on the label

 

As "has bean counter" says check the label and see how long it suggests to wait before they are dead, the other option is browse this forum for what people might have said about your particular product. People might be say in you need to add a bit extra or just sit back and wait.
