Roundup

Today, March 4th, it did hit 59 degrees so I could spray for weeds using Roundup. I use a 4 gallon backpack sprayer. I managed to spray two tanks of Roundup before becoming pooped and needing to put my feet up. We have gravel roads and a total of 13 acres along the Eastfork of the Lewis River. I use about 5 gallons of Roundup a year to keep it all in check. By no means is my garden areas perfect, but the weeds are kept at bay. No Roundup is used anywhere near my vegetable garden - hand pulling weeds is required. That's all for today - time for a bubble bath and a glass of non-alcoholic chardonnay.
