Weedol / Verdone Extra Lawn Weedkiller Kills Weeds 500ml Treats 333m2 Garden New

Product Information

The definition of a weed is a plant that is growing in the wrong place! This means all plants can be called a weed at sometime. The instructions for your weed killer may state a maximum of one application a year. Presumably this is to safe guard the grass and NOT the weeds! The logic, therefore, is that the side effects of the lawn weed killer above a certain level may damage or even kill the grass. The Lawnsmith recommended weed killers, Weedol (Verdone) and Resolva , state only one treatment per year. However, we have selected them because of their different active ingredients which means you can now treat twice a year if you need to as long as you use each product just once. This only applies when spraying the whole lawn with diluted weed killer concentrate NOT ‘ready to use’ weed killers for spot treating weeds which if targeted on the weed can be used more often. Selective Lawn Weed Killer Benefits: Secondly, (and this is the reason many people mix it too weak) many users don’t get an accurate measurement of their lawn. They completely underestimate how big their lawn is and only use enough concentrate for 30 square meters when in fact their lawn is 50 square meters. Only use in the growing season when growth is good normally 2 days after mowing and at least 3 days before the next cut. Ready to Use

Do not mix weed killer with moss killer or ferrous sulphate. If you need to kill moss AND weeds do it at least a week apart. A considerable number of reviewers who left a 3-star rating liked the product but had issues with damaged or leaky bottles (mostly the ready-to-use variant). However, if your lawn is currently inhabited by lots of weeds, a feed and weed probably won’t help. If you need additional sprays then you can use them in combination and get 3 sprays per annum total, however, if you do need to do this because weeds aren't dying then consider either your procedure, mixing or measurements to be faulty. Westland Resolva Lawn Weedkiller - wait 6 months after sowing or turfing if using the concentrate and 18 months if using the Ready to Use.I’ve used this weed killer may times and I know from experience that it can take up to 14 days before you see any significant results. Weedol is not a strong acid, it’s not designed to scorch or burn the weeds into oblivion. They typically come as part of a ready to use lawn feed and weed type of product but rarely as a stand-alone weedkiller.

Even though the weeds were still visible, they were crispy and showing no signs of life with no new offshoots etc.

Ready to use Weed Killer

However, don’t expect them to die within 24 hours as other weedkillers claim. It can take a week or so to see results. However, this is due to the fact that it doesn’t contain Glyphosate. Finally, some pets have some peculiar idiosyncrasies, therefore, if you feel your pet may consume or is sensitive to these products then keep them off or don’t use the product. For complete weed control a concentrate will do as good a job as ‘ready to use’ and vice versa. Use them according to the kind of treatment required. You may have noticed that weed killers are not made of the same chemicals. A lawn weed killer is a carefully selected group of active ingredients designed to kill a certain group of creeping and broad leaved weeds. Not all weed killers will kill all your lawn weeds hence you need to use a range of active ingredients to give yourself the best chance of good weed control. We have therefore selected two groups of weed killers that offer the broadest range of active ingredients so that if one doesn’t kill a certain weed the other may do. Use one group of chemicals for ‘full lawn treatment’ and the other group for ‘spot treatment’. If you only need to ‘spot treat’ then have two different ones on hand or when one runs out buy a different one to replace it. How to use two different Weed Killer Products Lawnsmith Option 1

Weed killers are every gardener’s friend. While some of us are better than others at growing shrubs and plants, all of us seem to be able to “grow weeds”. Thankfully, you can rid your lawn, patio, gravel drive, paths, and vegetable patches of these nuisance visitors using a range of highly effective and fast-acting weed-killer products.

For example, an amateur weed killer concentrate might take 1 part concentrate to 3 parts water to make the desired strength.

You also need to be aware that as this product also controls moss, it contains iron which can stain pathways so be careful when applying.

Which Lawn Weed Killer is Best?

We have selected two brands of weed killer; Westlands Resolva and Evergreen Weedol formerly known as Scotts Verdone. Between them they offer the broadest range of active ingredients so that if one doesn't kill a certain weed the other may. Use one brand of chemicals for 'full lawn or blanket spraying' and the other for 'spot treatment'. If you only need to ‘spot treat’ then have two different ones on hand or when one runs out buy the other one to replace it. If you know your weeds You can mix weed killer with our soluble lawn fertiliser so that you do two jobs in one. If using them separately apply the soluble fertiliser first and the weed killer about a week later. You can also apply weed killer on the same day as any of our granular fertilisers. If killing weeds before renovation and seeding you ideally need to leave at least 2 months after weed killing and before seeding.
