My go to weed killer

This has become my go to weed killer for my flagstone patio. I used this last year and it quickly killed every weed I sprayed. This year, I still don't have new weeds where the old ones were, but there are a few weeds in the cracks of my patio. This time, I'll spray the full crack to ensure that none pop up in areas that weren't sprayed. You will need a sprayer. A simple 1 gallon pump sprayer works excellent, and will cover approximately 900 sqft. Be sure to mix it as instructed.

Effective

This works, and it works fast! My husband mixed it up and applied it using his pump up sprayer, and within a day the weeds and grass are beginning to die at the site of application. This concentrate will go a long way, the bottle is still nearly full after mixing up a gallon. I also appreciate that the smell is very mild. Highly recommend!

Effective on broadleaf not so much on grasses

The Ortho Groundclear is a herbicide product meant to be a glyphosate (classic Roundup) replacement. As consumers and companies alike try to move away or use less glyphosate in general, we need something that can kill weeds and unwanted grass. I tried this product on some broadleaf weeds poking through my driveway, Bermuda grass on my driveway, and broadleaf/Bermuda in a mulch bed. Application was in full sun, temperature in the mid 80s. About an hour later, you can see some good progress on...

Killed weeds and grass quickly.

Product is excellent! I used this product on both weeds and grass. I sprayed both, anticipating returning and taking another picture in an hour. In an hour it was pouring rain, so I figured I would have to spray them again the following day. To my surprise and delight, both the weeds and the grass we completely dead when I sent to look at them the following day. This product exceeded my expectations. While it says it is rainproof within an hour, I really did not believe it. Now I do. Without que...

Great Product to Use on Driveways

We used this product on the weeds on our gravel driveway and concrete approach to our garage. It works great and we applied to the weeds that pop up and are unsightly. We could see it working less than three hours after we applied. It completely killed the weeds within 3-4 days. It is very important to follow the instructions on the product so it works well. We have purchased in the past and will continue to use. We recommend this Ortho product.

Ok product, not ok packaging.

Works well on some things, didn’t seem to touch others, and that was following the directions. The instructions are clear enough, no issues there, but unless you buy a separate cup to handle the measurements, it’s not as easy to get correct amounts. As well, it would be nice if it poured more smoothly. I’ve used other products that were designed to pour nicely and not splash everywhere, which isn’t what you want with something that is dangerous to handle already. When it works, it works well an...

Pretty good

This works pretty good. I think I need to do another application as not all of the grass and weeds were killed. The entire area was pretty well saturated so kinda dissatisfied that I need to apply again. It was simple to apply tho. I’ll be happy if it keeps new grass and weeds from popping up.
