I remember when crops were rotated though after roundup a couple of seasons the crops kept getting fewer and fewer according to statistics This makes sense from your experiment though because if the spray is used after it seed in the ground it will kill the seed/plant etc. However, in a rotation of continuing this glyphosate is still found remaining in fibrous soils which continues to produce less crop.

Great news I want to start a veggie patch but was concerned as I used roundup a few years back, now I know I can move forward with my plan without worry. Thank you for experimenting and posting out results.

Thanks for another great vid! Glad to know I'm not the only one who is down on air "fresheners."

Thank you for this! We're about to replace our lawn with pollinator-attracting plants & needed this exact information.

Great demonstration. Thank you.

Good video. Glyphosate is typically a foliar herbicide with poor root uptake. It can slow down plants directly seeded after treatment, but in general if you spray the weeds and not the seeds, they'll do fine. Thanks for standing up for the facts and the science.

Informative! Non-biased, and you addressed many of my questions & concerns clearly & simply. THNKS MUCH! 🌱

Thanks for giving us the heads up. I want to use a small paint brush with diluted glysophate on to eradicate nut grass in my veggie patch before it gets out of control. I reckon the same thing use it only when absolutely necessary and sparingly as nut grass is impossible to get rid of. Mulching does not stop nut grass. Digging it up does not stop nut grass.

My Black Bamboo has been killed all alongside my fence I’m almost positive something like Roundup has been poured over the fence. How can I get it checked.

Thank you for this helpful video. We really struggle w Bermuda grass here and Round Up has always been one of the few tools to help us manage it.

Succinct and informative - thank you

thanks for your video!

Thanks for sharing very interesting ❤️🙏🏽❤️

Farmers I know , spray the roundup out directly in front of the seeder and they still manage to grow fantastic canola,bean,pea, vetch,wheat and barley crops without any problems, been doing it for nearly 30 years now .

Curious how glyphostae would affect well drinking water if used as a cut stump and apply with a brush method, not spraying folliage.???

Thank you. I needed this.

I have been using roundup for my home backyard, but not concentrated as instructed from the product label! I recently planted maize seeds in the ground and just after that I sprayed on top of it, but the rate of germination still at maximum, and the new plants still growing normally and healthier, also I used once with knapsack sprayer after the maize after 6 weeks to control the germinating weed, but carefully not touching the Maize plants, also it worked well. The Maize are still growing well and without weeds.

Robert, Joe L’ampl recently had the expert witness against Monsanto Dr. Chadi Nabhan, on the podcast. So frustrating and I emailed him to please have you or another individual who can present a counter view. Thanks for your work!

That’s great explanation. Thank you

thank you very much... i have a row of arbortivaes along my back yard and have a ton of weeds creeping toward my property from my neighbors neglected jungle. i want to spray them back but im worried about runoff... this has helped me strategize, thank you!

great video sir

I’d like to see the follow up on how well the beans produced. My neighbors spray round up so much I wonder if they put it on their morning cereal. I guess they are bad ass huh? One neighbor widely sprays it while her dog is st her side. I think she is an idiot. But I digress. This past year the neighbors sprayed a ton. So much that I went inside because the fragrance was so strong. This year everything in my vegetable garden is small and a lot has hardly produced at all. No peppers to speak of. No beans or peas to speak of. Unhealthy sunflowers too. Even the butternut squash is about the size of a baseball. And although the Brussel sprout plant is tall, it’s not forming Brussel sprouts. Right now my cucumbers have a lot of blossoms but so did the acorn squash and the pumpkin and out of it all there has only been one small pumpkin. I’ve seen tiny pollinators doing their jobs. So yah I’d like to know how well those bean plants ended up producing.

Anyone know how long it stays on hard surface before rain washes it away.

Great video! Love your outlook and I agree those air fresheners for indoors are not only not great for the environment they smell disgusting.

Thanks for the very informative video!

2 things...Why didn't you mix the soil after spraying (to simulate cultivation/till)? Also...If Glyphosate binds to the soil then why does it show up on soil tests, water tests, tissue tests, produce tests, etc. etc. ?

I planted Hollyhocks after 1 week in soil that was sprayed with round up I have never had Hollyhocks grow so big in my life the tallest one was 19ft tall

What is confusing is that the only measure of whether the plant has been effected by glyphosate is how the leaves look. What about testing for any harmful toxins within the leave when consumed or when the plants fruit has been infested. You can’t possibly suggest that the health of the leaves (which is undoubted a good variable) is the ONLY way it could be harming the other things that grow out of the soil, or the things that touch the soil.

Thank you for the information

This ‘myth’ has not been busted. But, for those who are concerned... my understanding is that planting various types of daisies and sunflowers in contaminated soil, will ‘detox’ the soil. There are many benefits to using sunflowers as a cover crop or a crop to plant in any ground soil or raised beds where roots will reach into the ground. But, daisies were the ones that were pointed out as having the best ‘detox’ ability. I was told that they were used in soils around Chernobyl for radiation. I heard about this about ten years ago and seems like I tried looking into this a few years back and couldn’t find anything about it... but, if you use daisies as a pre crop... it’s not like you are going to make matters worse.

Useful information. Thank you

My home in FL has many pavers, front, back & sides. The weeds coming up between then are horrible & relentless. My biggest concern on what is best to use not only for the lasting results, but most importantly is my concern for the health & well being of all my dogs and cats. Any suggestions? Hard to lock them up in the house, as they are in & out through the pet door all day up until bedtime. Thanks.

I have Roundup sitting around for a few years. Will it still work?

Definitely wouldn’t use on plants I consume, but yes I’ve seen people smoke the yard and put grass seed down after a few days and a lush lawn after month

If I sprayed my entire lawn with Tenacity twice last August, would it be safe to start a vegetable garden bin April? I'm done with lawn chemicals.

I love how you did this. Better than using buzz words and playing on hysteria.

That was really good! Thanks

Chemical firm Bayer is to pay up to $10.9bn (£8.8bn) to settle cancer claims linked to its Roundup weedkiller.

Can I add Roundup directly to my drinking water as well?

Should have sent the beans to be tested. To see if the round ended up in the bean seeds.

So if the soil absorbs round up is it safe for food to sustain your family garden or will it go into your food and into your body?

Thank you!!!! 😊

roundup actually can't kill Philippine corn it is like a fertilizer in corn here in our farm and we don't know why 😂 and there is one kind of grass here that roundup can't kill not even dehydrate the leaves. roundup is safe but make sure to wear PPE

Setelah rumput dibunuh dengan round up..mengapa akan tumbuh lagi rumput,bahkan rumput yang jenisnya berbeda..apakah round up bibit rumput?

How dare you conduct an experiment LOL

I used some weed killer granules and I couldn't get grass seeds to grow for the rest of the year.

I ain't taking my chances with that crap.

toundup can kill permanent plants plz ans

Good vid. Generally agree with the 'science' but especially your disclaimer about avoiding, if possible, using any chemcial. But sometimes it's a necessity. We must also keep in mind that science is always evolving and our understanding advances with time and new data. What may seem harmless today may not prove to be so as new data appears. One wonders who is really investigating these products and are the reserachers neutral. The real harm done to society by this chemcial is economic, especially in poorer regions of the world where the necessity to marry roundup with genetically modified seeds tailored to roundup has often proven fatal. I've read that thousands of Indian farmers have been driven to poverty upon the promises of the chemcial system, and many have taken their own lives. Science, like life, is complicated.

My Father put round up on my outdoor/indoor plants today Just being petty do u think thy will still be alive once I get home by the end of the week ??

You can neutralise RoundUp in the soil with an Epsom salt solution. Two teaspoons per liter of water

Thank you for your fact based presentation.

So, are you saying that glyposate breaksdown in the soil overtime? That it is OK to use if you have well water? I've always heard that it doesn't breakdown and will seep into the ground water and poison your well. I've also worried that if you consume foods that have been grown in soil previously treated with glyposate, that the plants would retain some glyposate and be consumed. Finally, how do you know? Do you have a degree or other type of expertise? Too much out here with too many people talking about crap that they really don't have a clue about.

But would you eat the vegetables and beans grown in that soil? My neighbour soaks roundup through our property line into our garden every year. We now are suffering from lymphoma.

Thanks for doing experiment as I need a way to get rid of weeds without bending much. 🙂 This should work

Good information about Roundup. But if I spray roundup in my stone landscaping , would it kill my plants and bushes that are already planted and have growth? If so what suggestion do you have to kill weeds and grass in the stones and not affect my plants and bushes. Thanks, I’ll be waiting for your response before I do anything. 😊🌺🌸

Nice video, subscribing

We sow and spray over the same day. Everything comes nice and clean. Tried and tested on thousands of hectares.

So test the leaves to see if they have absorbed Glyphosphate....just guessing is not very smart if you plan on earing them.

I think you could have gotten results with about a 10th of he glysophate.

When it gels in the ground, I see no problem. It doesn't. I wouldn't eat whatever is produced by seeds after the Roundup. I would use the Roundup on what I would not eat.

Then why can't you grow veggies in washed herbacides drums ...warnings not to use drums or containers that have had herbacides in

The new plants might look good... however, you don’t know if the new plants have, in their systems, some of the chemicals that were in the round up or how they are affected. This is fine for ornamentals, but I would still question whether eating a plant grown in a product that has PROVEN to cause cancer and god knows what else. There are a LOT of conditions brewing inside our bodies that we don’t know about but become problematic after years and not just in people over 65, but young adults and children. But it is difficult to pin the cause on things like this stuff. But with that said, the best way to use this product is in an ornamental landscape and spray on weed seedlings as soon as they pop up to avoid dousing the whole yard... I just moved into a house that had been neglected by the tenants and the landlord practically doused the yard with this stuff... several landscape plants are suffering. Fortunately I’m not planting food plants or medicinal herbs out there... glad to know I can plant some ornamentals now and they will probably be fine. But the danger of this chemical is not a myth in terms of how it might be affecting the food grown in it. It is a SERIOUS question that needs to be analyzed in a lab. Perhaps it has been. Hopefully I will find the results. I know of a lab that tests for metals in food... it’s on my bucket list to contact them and find out for myself how round up might be affecting food plants on a molecular level.

I don't think this is entirely accurate. Sorry, but last year I accidentally sprayed my tomato plants with the wrong sprayer. I was in a hurry and I grabbed my roundup sprayer. It has been 10 months since I did that. I am getting glyphosate damage on tomatoes that I planted this year. So I think it does stay in the soil.

I grew up a conventional farmer, never really thought to much about chemicals, trusted the fda and epa that had our best interest At heart, Glycphosate which I have used on thousands of acres has it origin in mineral bindining in boiler pipe. It does the same thing in soil which cause higher fertilizer use as it binds nutrients in the soil. And using it as a desicant on wheat right before harvest is irresponsible as it it absorbed into the plant right before consuming . Spraying on corn, soybeans or wheat I early growth stages is one thing, they have 100nds of days to grow out of exposure, but wheat as a burn down.... no, I don't want that in my grandchildren, grow your own, and let them eat as grandma did Z

thanks for sane scientific information. Rare these days.

how soon after spraying can i plant anything and can i use vinegar or bleach instead

I wonder how many of you will be claiming compensation from Bayer in a couple of years..good luck to you..dont say you havent been warned

My experience conflicts a little with his conclusions. True that after a month plants will grow where roundup was used. Years later I can see a difference in what is now a lawn, in the area where is was used. Use with caution!!

Is it safe to eat the plant like tomatoes

So nice to see you dressed more like a gardener, lol, to hear you, and see you continuing the search for truth.

Its misuse is causing lots collateral damage .

Glyphosate ( the active herbicidal compound in Roundup) is rapidly bound to organic material and metals in the soil and thus is inactivated.

Dude nice little experiment! I love this! short sweet an proof!

Glyphosate does disrupt the soil microorganism communities. There is a lot of research on this. if you disrupt the soil microbiology it will have a negative effect over time, so you won’t see the damage done immediately. Soil microorganisms are what cycles nutrients in the soil, without a diversity of species of microbes in different trophic levels, you will not have plant available nutrients, and you will become addicted to chemical fertilizers which are costly. The soil microbes also play a role in soil structure, which influences air and water flow. Just seeing that plants grew after 6 days of application, does not indicate that glyphosate is safe for use or a good idea, since it disrupts the soil ecosystem, which is essential to sustainable growing conditions over time.

Uhm the two second beans?

I've been growing roundup ready sweetcorn for years and it gives me great pleasure seeing anti herbicide/pesticide tinfoil hat wearers buying it all up saying how tasty it is.

Help I used 365 round up to kill my all weed yard. When may I sow grass.?😩

LoL :)

Dont spray herbicide if you want grow Vegetable, use alot compost instead

Caffeine has a half life of 20,000 years in the aquatic environment but you don't here people complaining about that.

Roundup and RU ready seeds is/are one of the top 10 leading inventions/discoveries/ in the history of Agriculture. I have used RU for over 25 years on/around my fruit and nut trees. DO NOT use it around Oak tree roots. It will be absorbed thru the roots and kill the tree. I have accidently done this many times. My brother has had this happen to him also. iF the oak tree survives it may take up to 3 years before leaves are normal and growth resumes. I don't care that Monsanto says that it can only be absorbed thru the leaves. NOT True. There are other tree species that can handle it around the roots. Doesnt seem to harm Walnuts, Birches, Apple, hickorys at 2 oz/gallon hand sprayer rate but of course do not get any spray or mist on the foliage, bark or root collar. Just Guessing: maybe its killing the mycorr fungi in the soil that the oak tree roots need.

The recommended amount of 100% Glyphosate I put on a square foot to kill a Dandelion is 16 oz per 43560 ft or .0035 oz./ft. Grassy weeds are much more affected than broad leaf weeds as a rule. Water containing Ca+ will Neutralize part of the Glyphosate. NH4 SO4 is added to counter this. Using a rope wick with small amount of 25% Glyphosate will greatly reduce the Glyphosate needed to kill. Robert, looks like you used a very large amount of Glyphosate.

Here’s a real scientist

Trust the sciencr

Glyphosate The hormone disruptor & micro biome killer

Ground clear kills for 1 year

Are you really sure with that. I appreciate your experiment. Limiting is the key. That’s why weeds grow back in their next respective season. But we don’t tend to eat weeds. I don’t think I would like to eat veggies from my garden that I have pre sprayed with glyphosate. a good experiment would be to test how much glyphosate is in the vegetable. But you will probably get shot before the glyphosate will kill you. So let’s test that everybody.

Yes it’s kills the microbes

Glyphosate might be safe when properly used topically on specific plants, but unfortunately, that is not how it's being used by some farmers. They use it to dry out their crops before harvest in order to get a more consistent grade when selling their grain. They also apply it in mass over GMO grain crops to kill everything but the crop. It's these kinds of uses that are problematic. Using glyphosate to surgically kill specific plants or trees, vines and other invasive plant is extremely efficient and precise. One way to do it for example, is to cut the stem of a plant near the end of the summer and then immediately (within minutes) apply a dab of Round-Up to it using a paint brush. If you do it when the plant is drawing nutrients towards its roots (as opposed to spring when it sends them to the upper parts of the plant), then the roots will suck it up and kill the plant without a single drop touching the ground.

I wonder why Roundup gets such a bad rap when the real problems come from aminopyralid products.

you need to be a little more educated on how glyphosate work. Glyphosate is a Kelation agent that works systemically in the plant by shutting the immune system down, which is why after a few days it will bind with the minerals in your soil or if you use extremely hard water it has very little effect because it binds with the minerals in the water. Once the Glyphosate shuts the immune system down the plant extrudes the glyphosate and will kill the good microbes in the soil and promote pathogens in the soil since it is Glyphosate is an ANTIBIOTIC and the plant is actually killed by a systemic infection. Try your experiment in steril soil and natural soil and then re do the video.

Yes I know I may missphrased my wording and my intention was confusing. Let me clarify my remarks. Roundup has gotten lots of bad press. I only mentioned 2-4, D as an example and it however has had a long history of usage with far less negative opposition from its use. It is a known component in Agent Orange which was used with far deadlier results. Round up has been a victim of aggressive legal tactics. Any chemical if it is not used according to printed directions could have negative consequences. Round up used according to directions should be very safe for normal people under normal conditions. Unhealthy people with preexisting medical conditions should probably exercise good judgement and refrain from any type of herbicide. Your video on Roundup is spot on and You clearly explain the safe use and show clearly effects of proper use of Roundup on plants using scientific methods, observation and analysis. There may be much more dangerous products in the marketplace than Roundup. Your Gardening presentations and accurate explanations of true Gardening Science are invaluable to everyone. Thanks. Sorry for any misunderstanding I may have caused. It was not my intention.

Weed killer isnt used in isolation pots. Dude ,cmon! . Are you an ex employee?

It’s poison, why would you spray it near your food

Glyphosate is safe

Cancer? Psh! 😂

sadly, I don't think any of this is helpful at all. If I was a company worth a billion dollars my science would prove that the products I produce are safe, but if I don't have any money, I can't prove that the products are safe. Proof costs money
