Heavy Duty Herbicides

Recommended Posts

adsm08

I'm looking for some heavy duty, industrial grade herbicides. Basically, I have a patch of ground on my property where I want it to be impossible for anything to ever grow again.

 

It's a 20x30 patch between the garage and the woods that I want to gravel and use for parking, but beyond that in the 10 years I've lived here nothing useful ever grows there, and lots of  undesirable things do.

 

At first it was just some English Ivy growing on a downed tree. Then I pulled the tree to use as firewood. After that Locust trees started popping up. I got those mostly rooted out and then American Pokeweed took over. I know that stuff is usually harmless, but I have a reaction to it similar to poison oak. Last year we got that all killed, finally, and now this Spring its full of poison hemlock and some honey suckle.

 

I'm tired of this patch growing the most undesirable plants in the area, and just want it sterilized.

Cover it with 6 mil or heavier plastic for the rest of the summer.  It’ll cook everything under there. It won’t stop future growth but, as far asI know, anything you use to stop all future growth is going to be really toxic for a long time.
