Can anyone recommend a really strong weed killer (I dont suppose you can buy the systemic kind anymore!)

I have some really persistant weeds growing along the wall at the back of my house, and this Springtime they seem to have grown like triffids.

Brand name and place to buy would be well appreciated.

Thanks, Jools

I use Roundup and Stranne combined which works well - particularly when applied in the prime growing season after rainfall.  Visible results can take over a week depending on the plant.  They will tell you how much of each to use if you buy it from the Soldebre Agrobotiga in Tortosa.  NB  If there is a risk of animals eating the plants one sprayed use Roundup 'Energy'.

If I agree with you, then
we would both be wrong

I use donkey....that way we dont kill everybody.  My view is that if you have weeds in a wall, take 10 minutes every few weeks
and pull them out or cut them off. Eventually they get the message.
