Re: CULT: Stopping Roundup

Kitty,
As long as you got it all washed off the iris and out of the crevices etc, you should be ok, The only other effect roundup has, as I understand it, is that it converts to some salts in the soil and that may burn the root tips a little (but not other wise affect the plant. You might consider some extra irrigation to help was out the salt residues.

I did a stupid.
Two days ago I was spraying a bunch of grass, and moved my Roundup jug, and was holding it and the spray nozzle in one hand, and then realized I was 
squeezing it and it was giving a good dose to a good sized clump of a
species iris. I got the hose and washed it down good, and washed it a second time a few hours later. The entire row of grass is beginning to brown, but so far the species iris looks ok. Was there any thing else I 
could have done?  Do you suppose I've saved it?
