Wanted to say thanks for this advice. Used it weekend before last and the stuff has stayed dead.


Found it at the local Ace Hardware.

That's great!
Didn't know they sold it.
I know that it's a lot cheaper than Roundup and a lot more effective.
Outdoor Equipment sells it in 2 gal containers for the concentrate.
That's a lot for someone who doesn't have acreage.

Yeah, it's about $15 a quart. So using a few ounces per gallon it works out to a lot of product for a suburbanite.

They had the gallons also, but figured a quart ought to last me a few seasons.




Got to where I like Ace a lot more than HD or Lowes. Easier to get into, easier to find a person to help, prices a bit higher but made up with customer service. Was at one two weeks ago in Belton that even sold pistol, rifle and shotgun ammo. Haven't seen that in a while.

There is a Ace/True Value Hardware not far from me that sells handguns, shotguns and assault rifles as well as the ammo.....now that’s what I call the “Helpful Hardware Man.....

Out of curiosity Russ, what store is that? Sounds like I place I would visit.







You guys got me thinking about the control of invasive plants and vines and the need for a special license to get the good stuff.


How to become:PRIVATE PESTICIDE APPLICATOR


https://www.texasagriculture.gov/Por...ng%20flyer.pdf


Take a 6 hour online course from TAMU for $75
Online course materials: $40


Apply to the state for the license $100


Take the exam: $ 64






Total: $279


That is not much more than paying a pro do come take care of your issues once. License is for 5 years.

Licensed private applicators are required to recertify every five years by obtaining 15 continuing education credits, including two (2) credits in laws and regulations and two (2) credits in integrated pest management (IPM), prior to expiration of the license. Contact TDA for a list of approved courses. A list of courses is also available on TDA's web site.

Might want to be a little careful dear but I am SURE you are referring to those pesky little crack tomatoes get.
Maybe they grow too fast. I dunno.

Crack = Fertilizer
Now go sit down
