Roundup ProMax Herbicide
Roundup ProMax Herbicide
Roundup ProMAX, manufactured by Monsanto, is a post-emergent systemic herbicide that delivers non-selective control of a wide range of annual weeds, perennial weeds, woody brush, and trees.
Roundup Pro Max comes in a water-soluble formulation and has a built-in surfactant in the formula.
When RoundUp ProMAX is applied onto a weed, it is absorbed by the plant, where it then prevents the plant from attaining photosynthesis and gathering nutrients to sustain itself. Roundup is then transported throughout the weed to kill the entire weed down to the root.
Tools Needed
Roundup ProMax can be applied through a wide range of spray equipment like a backpack sprayer or a spraying rig. For the average home application, a hand-pump sprayer should do.
How to Use
- Step 1: Determine how much product you will need by first calculating the square footage of the area you wish to treat. To do this, measure and multiply the area length times the width (length x width = square footage). Rates for RoundUp Promax vary depending on the concentration ratio from 0.4% concentration (0.5 oz. per gallon per 1,000 sq. ft.) to a 7% concentration (9 oz. per gallon per 1,000 sq. ft.). When using RoundUp Promax, typically it takes 2 oz. of concentrate per gallon of water for most general applications. Brush and Vines will require 5-9 oz. of solution per gallon of water.
- Step 2: Fill the spray tank with the required amount of water and then the appropriate amount of Roundup ProMax. Fill with the remaining half of water and then close the lid and agitate the sprayer to ensure the product is well-mixed.
- Step 3: Apply the solution to the desired area via fan spray setting for uniform coverage. Spray generously but not to the point of runoff. Plants should die within 24 hours. If not, reapply after 7 to 10 days for particularly stubborn weeds.
Where to Use
Use RoundUp ProMax is ideal to be used in non-crop areas such as airports, apartment complexes, commercial sites, ditch banks, driveways, dry ditches, dry canals, fencerows, golf courses, greenhouses, industrial sites, landscape areas, lumber yards, manufacturing sites, municipal sites, natural areas, office complexes, ornamentals, parks, parking areas, pastures, petroleum tank farms and pumping installations, public areas, railroads, rangeland, recreation areas, residential areas, rights-of-way, roadsides, schools, shade houses, sports complexes, storage areas, substations, turfgrass areas, utility sites, warehouse areas, and wildlife management areas.
When to Use
Applying RoundUp ProMax should be done when weeds are young and actively growing. If weeds are going through stress, such as during a drought or cool temperatures, you made need to apply a higher dosage to get the weeds to die out.
Safety Information
Roundup ProMax is safe to use when applied according to label directions. Make sure to wear the proper PPE when applying this product (goggles, gloves, face mask, etc). After treatment, keep pets and children away from the treated area until the product as dried.
Special Considerations
Apply Roundup ProMax to foliage on a coarse spray setting. Spray to wet and make it uniform. It would be wise to use a spray pattern indicator to keep track of your spraying and avoid over spraying with RoundUp ProMax.

1) It works on green leaves. Just because weeds pop up in 2 weeks, don't blame the product. Those new weeds were seeds when you used the product the 1st time. Keep using it but only spot spray the 2nd time.
2) Follow the safety precautions. I've used RoundUp all my life and I'm a healthy 66 year old lady. I followed directions!
