I used Roundup to kill the weeds!! I got the idea, which I have tried before, with great success but it was messy and dangerous. And, I was losing valuable nutrients to the weeds. In other words , I couldn't keep up with the pace of the weeds. I purchased the spray wand on Amazon to see if the long reach would help me deliver the Roundup to the weeds without dripping on the pumpkin leaves. Obviously it worked. The roundup was applied 9 days ago. This wand is all metal including the valve and nozzle and is much more precise than the plastic wands that come with most sprayers. I know that this is not a new idea and many growers have used roundup before. It is wand with its precision that made all the difference....for me.
