Thank you for writting it. I just used it for my 7th grade essay project about plan. I hope I will get an A. //@Anonymous: All you need to know is that this is a diluted solution of glyphosate (there are some RoundUp products without). Glyphosate works, unfortunately it has been used too much, hence the bad rap. Safety wise, it is less deadly than vinegar. Now if you are out of principle against the use of glyphosate, I have no hope that an anonymous internet post will change your mind. But I do agree that it should be applied with caution (again, my idea of caution may not be the same as yours).
Price-wise, it is good for what it can do - upon contact with any parts of a plant, in a week or so it will get to the root and kill it completely, it is relentless (also, animals do not have the "shikimate" path it attacks in plants). There are some stores, eg Tractor Supply, that will sell non-RoundUp branded higher concentration glyphosate solutions and if you do the math you may end up ahead if you do your own dilution. But this has the work cut out for you and is on end of season clearance. It will retain its efficacy until next spring.
