It has to wash off first. Roundup can stick to non soil surfaces for weeks
and still be active. I have seen where it was sprayed in a greenhouse over
benches to kill weeds below. Plants that were later placed on benches and
contacted the bench surfaces were damaged. We have not had a good rain in 4
weeks or more... Bob.

I have sprayed roundup over 8000 ft of plastic mulch thinking it
would rain before it was time to plant and that would wash any residue
from the mulch however we are hot and dry and we have 2100 plants in
our van ready to be planted. Does any one know if there is a time
limit on the effectiveness of roundup. Would hate to try to wash it
off .
thanks
