I have vines growing over my junipers. Will it kill the junipers when I spray the vines?

Farley, this product is pretty much "cut & kill". It works by totally killing a stump after you cut the bush/tree...I used it with great success with Rose of Sharon. It's not a spray...you brush it on the stump. If you cut the vines and brush this on their stumps, they won't grow back. It shouldn't harm the junipers. Look at it this way...it suffocates the stump of the plant that you want to eliminate. There's not a peripheral side effect.

I use it for brushing the stalks after I cut them. My bottle came with a brush on applicator in the lid. Although it states it is the same ingredient as the Greenlight stump and vine killer. The Greenlight brand was better due to the fact it rotted the stumps for easy remove and the stalks of the vines I cut.

If the roots intertwine yes the junipers are going to die. I painted this on a 3-4" diameter poision Ivy vine that was cut about 2 feet above ground. A 100 foot tall cottonwood with a base diameter of 4 feet, had the poision ivy growing on the outside of the tree. No herbicide was splashed on the bark of the cottonwood. Yet the tree died within 6 months. Tordon warns you that unlike roundup this is not effected by dirt, It keeps going all the way down to the deepest root. Great product just know what you are doing when using it

I have used the one with the brush-on cap on greenbrier vines--just cut the vine and brush the product on the cut stems. You don't spray it. It's effective. It may take repeated applications over a period of time. I have not killed anything I wanted to save. Garden Girl is right.

When I responded last year I was very happy but all the things I thought I got rid of are back worse than ever so now I don't think it works

Ha! Me too. I just used this a couple weeks ago. Didn't do a thing to the junipers. I have some Virginia Creeper that is growing over my junipers. I cut into the vine and brushed it with some of the vine killer. I will post my pictures on my review of what happened. It killed the leaves. The vine doesn't look too healthy now but the junipers are fine. What I should do is cut down to the ground and brush the vines, but they are in the neighbor's yard. I'll try that too later. But I did kill most of a tree in between my roses. Did not harm them at all.

Probably. This isn't a spray anyway. It's meant to selectively kill vines etc. on which you dab the poison using the little dabber that is part of the cap. Because of the possibility of "drift" you shouldn't spray herbicides b/c the stuff could land on plants you don't want killed. You should seriously consider less drastic measures as sprays can be very harmful to the environment. I would start by cutting the vines off at the base or as close to the ground as you can. Pull off the vines--take out all your aggressions on those stupid weeds. It's very therapeutic! If you can find where the vine is coming out of the ground try digging it out. If you can't, then carefully "paint" the remaining stem with Stump-Out. It might take more than one application. I have bind weed on my property. It has a tap root to hell. The only way I can control it is to keep cutting it back a couple times a year and make sure I prevent it from setting seed. I have been gardening for over 50 years and the longer I do, the more convinced I am that it is important not to spray herbicides or pesticides. Hope I have helped you.

It will kill flowers. There is a smaller spray bottle of Weed Be Gone that you can use to kill the weeds around your garden or flower beds. This bottle should be used only on lawns.

No, it will kill all but the very hardiest plant. Now, I do put it directly on some particularly nasty weeds in my yard. It will kill them, and then the grass eventually grows back.

I don't know if it will work for you. I know, however, that it didn't eliminate Bermuda in my juniper in SC. On the other hand, the juniper was not effected. I can't recommend this product based upon my experience.

sorry I never tried on plants, on bushes I think it'd work. as I'm sure I hit my bushes when I sprayed.

Most likely. From both the product description and my experience, this product kills ALL vegetation.

I was told by a gardener that it will kill trees and other vegetation. So, when I spread Noxall, I avoided my trees, rose bushes and other plants. It killed all the weeds and vegetation and I am free of some of the worst weeds in our Nevada area.

This is the best killer that I have ever found. I would think it would kill your sprouts without any problem. I put an ounce of liquid dish soap in my 2 gallon sprayer with any brush/weed killer so it helps it to stay on the leaves and not just run off, Some leaves or even wild onions have a wax on them that sheds water. Hope this helps you.

Yes. Be very careful NOT to get it on any other plant life you do not want to kill.

Yes, if you keep your vine pruned . just make sure you have it grounded in real well.

Yes, It will kill zoysia and will not harm juniper. It is slow acting, and will take two to three weeks to kill the grass. Use three ounces to a gallon on water. After a couple of weeks the grass will begin to turn yellow and will slowly die. It is an excellent grass herbicide.

If it's a ficus... Yes. A juniper thrives outside and will not last too long inside

2,4-D is a BROADLEAF PLANT killer. So anything that is not classified as a grass will be killed. Weed killer does not know the difference between a dandelion or a rose bush, or a lilac or a juniper. It will kill all of them. If you can spray the dog fennel without getting it on the juniper you will be successful, otherwise you will kill both.

This product doesn't kill plants. It only keeps seeds for new ones from germinating. I wouldn't recommend it for keeping weeds out of lawns, though. It is like orange paint; it will color the lawn, and it is expensive. I use it to keep weeds out of flower beds where perrenials are growing.

The product comes with a very large listing (inside it's folding label) of trees etc that it will kill. I suggest you buy one and see how that works. I bought several as I had 35 Oleanders to kill. And it works great. Just beware to follow safety directions.

If label includes centipede grass, it will take two or more sprays about 2 weeks apart to kill it. It is safe on broadleaf plants so probably is okay on this juniper.

Yes. It will kill anything. I mix 12 oz of Remedy with one gallon of diesel. This diesel aids the Remedy to leach onto the plant better.
