If I use chemicals to kill something I expect it to stay dead and it just doesn't look like that's working with the roundup. it seams to kill grass good but not so good with the weed regrowth issue.

im going to try that 2-4-D stuff and see what happens.
you buy it premixed or you mix it yourself? sounds ilke you just need a stronger solution. Read the application guidelines for the plants you are trying to kill. you can also mix glyphosate and 2-4-d in the same solution, but make sure you want everything you spray it on to die. If there is dew on the ground or a chance of rain, wait for the grass to dry or the rain to pass.
