Reviews about the herbicide Ground

Nikita, 42 years old, Yekaterinburg
Two years ago, on the occasion, I bought a summer cottage belonging to a lonely old man. It is clear that the grandfather did not have the strength to handle it. Although the beds were clean. The store recommended Roundup and Ground. Bought both herbicides. Etched the weeds with each of them in different parts of the cottage. Both tools have proven to be excellent. The following year, the main area of ​​the dacha was cleared of perennial weeds. Remained only along the fence. I think I’ll deal with them with herbicides as well.
Serafima, 25 years old, Kazan
I also use Ground in flowerbeds. But I just don’t spray the weeds, but lubricate them with a wide brush. Works great.
Nikolai, 44 years old, Brest
I want to give advice to gardeners and gardeners on the treatment of weeds with herbicides. The solution works faster if there are cuts on the grass. Therefore, I first mow the area with weeds, and then spray.
