If I were to make up a solution of glyphosate & put it in a spray bottle would it keep & for how long?

How many of those unit thingies to a bottle???

Ensure that you have 'concentrated' glyphosate in the first place,

What with all the new euro rules you might find what you have bought is a 'ready to use' mix and therefor you don't need to dilute it.

If you do dilute it you may make it innefective.

All I can say is read the label and see what you have and what you can do with it!

Yes it's a concentrate Tee Gee. Can it be stored when it's been diluted.

Hi

As a professional user of Glyphosate, it is suggested  it should not be mixed  until needed as it breaks down (is why we do a number of careful calculations). From experience  it is less effective even if stored diluted for 12 hours.

Thanks FG. I thought that was the case.
