RangerClay Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Can you spray round up on wet grass? It stopped raining about 3 hours ago but its still damp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Culvercreek hunt club Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 It is best when dry because the plants draw it in better. It also is most effective if it dries before the next rain. all thing equal I would be more concerned about the next rain event over it being wet. I would beef up the concentratin if spraying wet plants though. some of your spraying water is already on the plant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catskillkid Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 I would wait until the grass is dry and no rain in the forecast for at least a day. The lable reads to spray on dry weeds and then it will become rainfast after 2 hours. But another section of the label says an additional application may be needed if it rains shortly after 2 hours. The chemical needs time to be absorbed through the leaves and then migrate to the roots to be effective. Considering the cost of Roundup, wait until you know it will be effective.

outdoorstom Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 Definitely let it dry. I've had rain after a couple hours and still got a good burn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
