Is there any difference in the cheaper round up vs more expensive?

The concentration is marked on the container.

I bought a 2.5 gallon jug of concentrated glyphosate at the coop that will likely last 10 years or more, if it stays effective. Maybe $60 or so

Roundup has a surfactant in it that cheaper generic glyphosates don’t have

Serious question. Why are people still using Roundup when it is known for its toxicity and is harmful to everything. And if you are gardening and using, now it’s in your vegetables that hi grow so they don’t contain all of the toxins we get in store bought items. Just wondering.

Most definitely. That’s why I asked why folks use it on their own property. That’s all.

Ok, thank you.

The added surfactant and fertilizer mixture makes a big diff
