I'm not much of a handyman at all. (Hence my asking for advice)
I could use a good weed killer. I live in a townhouse that has a small patio. It's surrounded by a privacy fence. I'd like to buy something that will kill the vegetation for good in a 3' X 6' area. I plan on throwing down some cedar chips or something afterwards. I suppose I could just pick something, but I thought I'd ask. |

I presume you want to kill everything.
Roundup is your product. |

nice work NewC..dolph
Depending on how things shake out....I may have a huge project to show in transition. kcm....there are generic "roundup" weed killers that will kill everything...pick it up at walmart or a true value type store. Put down a couple of layers of newspaper, if not plastic under your cedar mulch. It'll help keep stuff from growing up through. |

I'm sure there's cheaper, off-brand versions of Roundup but Roundup is the best known brand for a reason. It will work.
A good home remedy is sugar. Lay down a bag of sugar in that area and it will kill any vegetation. I've also heard 1 part vinegar, 1 part citrus oil, and 8 parts water will do it. I dunno. I've never used the home remedies myself. |

Anyway, I'll probably go with the Roundup, and put down some plastic (like Iowanian mentioned).. I can get that at work. |

Sugars get microbes into high gear. The sugar actually improves the health of your soil long term, but will cause so much microbe action that the plant/root will overload and die. |
