How does Growers Own Total Weedkiller work?
Glyphosate is absorbed through green foliage and transported throughout the plant towards its growing points and roots, providing systemic rather than contact-only weed control.

Growers Own Total Weedkiller is an extra-strength systemic glyphosate concentrate for controlling annual, perennial and deep-rooted weeds on paths, patios, driveways, gravel and other suitable outdoor areas.
Containing 90g/L glyphosate, the concentrated formula is absorbed through green foliage before being transported through the plant towards the roots. This systemic action controls the whole weed rather than simply scorching the visible leaves.
The 1 litre bottle makes up to 10 litres of spray solution when used at the specified hand-sprayer dilution and can treat up to approximately 400m².
Suitable for common unwanted vegetation including grasses, nettles, docks, bindweed, willowherb, dandelions and other annual and perennial weeds.
Why choose Growers Own Total Weedkiller?
- 90g/L glyphosate concentrate - systemic weed control absorbed through green foliage.
- Controls weeds down to the roots - transported through the plant rather than acting only on visible foliage.
- Annual and perennial weed control - suitable for a wide range of common unwanted vegetation.
- 1L concentrate - makes up to 10L of spray solution at the specified hand-sprayer rate.
- Up to 400m² coverage - economical treatment for larger outdoor areas when used as directed.
- Ideal for hard surfaces - useful on paths, patios, driveways and similar areas where unwanted vegetation needs controlling.
- Suitable for gravel areas - useful for spot treatment of weeds emerging through gravel and other appropriate surfaces.
- Sprayer application - suitable for application using an appropriate hand-held or knapsack sprayer.
Systemic weed control from leaf to root
Growers Own Total Weedkiller is a systemic herbicide. Rather than working only where the spray touches the plant, glyphosate is absorbed primarily through actively growing green foliage and translocated throughout the weed.
This allows the active ingredient to reach growing points and underground plant tissue, making systemic treatment particularly useful for established perennial weeds that may otherwise regenerate from their roots.
Because the product is non-selective, spray should be directed carefully onto unwanted vegetation. Contact with the green leaves and stems of wanted plants should be avoided.
What weeds can it control?
Growers Own Total Weedkiller is designed for the control of a broad range of annual and deep-rooted perennial weeds.
- Annual grasses and broad-leaved weeds
- Perennial grasses
- Nettles
- Docks
- Bindweed
- Willowherb
- Dandelions
- Other susceptible unwanted vegetation
Established perennial weeds can take longer to respond than small annual weeds because the active ingredient must move throughout a larger plant and root system.
Mixing & application
For hand-held sprayer application, use 100ml of concentrate in 1 litre of water to treat approximately 40m². A full 1 litre bottle can therefore make up to 10 litres of spray solution and provide up to approximately 400m² of coverage when applied at this rate.
Apply to actively growing weeds, wetting the foliage as directed on the product label while avoiding excessive run-off. Good coverage of healthy green foliage allows the systemic active ingredient to enter the plant effectively.
Mix only the quantity required for the intended treatment and always follow the instructions and application restrictions printed on the product label.
Getting the best results
Glyphosate performs best when weeds are actively growing and have sufficient healthy green leaf area to absorb the spray.
Avoid application in windy conditions where spray could drift onto wanted vegetation. Weather conditions before and after treatment can also influence uptake, so always follow the product label regarding suitable application conditions.
Visible effects are not necessarily immediate. Systemic herbicides need time to move through the plant, and established perennial weeds can take longer to show complete effects than small annual weeds.
Where can Growers Own Total Weedkiller be used?
Typical applications include weed control on suitable outdoor areas such as:
- Paths and walkways
- Patios and paved areas
- Driveways
- Gravel areas
- Around fences and boundaries
- Other appropriate outdoor areas where total weed control is required
Do not use this product as a selective lawn weedkiller. Glyphosate will damage or kill susceptible grasses and other wanted vegetation contacted by the spray.

Growers Own Total Weedkiller FAQs
How much area does a 1L bottle cover?
At the specified hand-sprayer rate, a 1L bottle can make up to 10L of spray solution and treat up to approximately 400m². What is the dilution rate?
For hand-held sprayer application, the stated rate is 100ml of concentrate in 1 litre of water, treating approximately 40m². Always check and follow the product label before application. Can it kill perennial weeds?
Yes. The systemic action makes it suitable for susceptible perennial and deep-rooted weeds as well as annual weeds. Established plants may take longer to show complete effects. Can I use it on my lawn?
No. Glyphosate is non-selective and can kill lawn grasses as well as weeds. It should not be used as a selective lawn weedkiller. When is the best time to spray weeds?
Apply when target weeds are actively growing and have healthy green foliage available to absorb the spray. Follow the label regarding weather and application conditions. Will it damage plants that I want to keep?
Yes, it can. Glyphosate is a non-selective herbicide, so spray must be kept off the green leaves and stems of wanted plants. Can I use it on patios and driveways?
It is suitable for controlling weeds on appropriate outdoor areas including paths, patios, driveways and gravel areas when used according to the product label. Why do glyphosate weeds not die immediately?
This is a systemic treatment rather than a rapid contact scorch. The active ingredient must be absorbed and transported through the plant, so visible symptoms can take time to develop. Can I apply it with a knapsack sprayer?
Yes. The concentrate is suitable for appropriate hand-held and knapsack spraying equipment, subject to the application instructions on the product label. Can I spray when it is windy?
No. Avoid windy conditions because spray drift can carry a non-selective herbicide onto nearby plants that you do not want to damage. What should I do with the sprayer after application?
Clean application equipment thoroughly after use according to the label instructions. Residual weedkiller left in spraying equipment could damage wanted plants during subsequent use. What safety instructions should I follow?
Always follow the current product label, including its instructions for application, protective measures, storage, re-entry and disposal. Keep children and pets away from treated areas until dry.
