    Once you have killed the weeds in a yard, how long does it usually take before the area can be replanted, i.e. St. Augustine sod? Thanks.

    Just wondering if after the weeds have died can I place other plants in the soil or is it contaminated for good? Thank you.

      About Poke Weed. We had a horrible problem with that terrible weed. We tried everything and finally had to buy a spectracide weed killer made especially for poke weed. So many regular weed killers do not work. My one piece of advice is to do what the spectracide instructions said to do for poke weed. Cut the stem of the poke weed and spray your solution directly into the stem so the stem carries the solution to the root type tuber that supplies that weed. If you don’t get that tuber, the weed will multiply and return worse than ever. Our poke weeds had reached the height of 5 or more feet tall and cutting that stem to about a foot and spraying into the stem worked. It took about a week for it to completely die. Be careful while around that weed. Keep your skin protected. I just touched my husband’s yard clothes and it caused an allergic reaction to my skin and eyes that required a shot and medication.

      It doubles thistle in 3 weeks. Kills it in minutes but when it regenerates, look out!

      No it will kill your grass. Use it where you don’t want anything to grow.
