Re: Roundup - Safe or Not?

Hello Mark,
        I'm not an organic gardener...<Gasp, Cough, Wheez, Your babies will die--Fret not I don't have any!>  My father worked for a chemical company and was a professor of agronomy at several universities and a consultant to a number of underdeveloped countries. I apply chemicals according to his advice:  "Read the label and follow the directions."  All chemicals that are available to the general public these days are safe when used according to the directions. There should be a support group for gardeners who use chemicals---"Hello, My name is Kathy.  I use Round-up, Weed-Be-Gone, Malathion, Seven, Poast, and a variety of systemic stuff on my roses and ornamentals.  Shame on me...I need help!"

>My query to members of the group is, how safe is roundup---

        Roundup will kill anything that comes in its contact, be careful not to get any on the leaves of the plants in your garden.
