Thanks Fred. Look forward to hearing results.
After reading on the web about all the 'make your own' wick applicators,
I decided to experiment with stuff from the Dollar Store. Bought a
cotton mop for $1, twisted the plastic end off the handle, poured a half
cup of water in the hollow handle, and <drum roll> I now have a dandy
wick applicator.
It dripped until the mop head was damp, then slowed to a wicking action.
With the side benefit of getting my kitchen floor mopped.
Will try it on the weeds tomorrow.
Most of the websites I saw recommended 1 part concentrated Roundup to 2
parts water, a <much> stronger concentration than I normally use.
