    Pete, 1 litre for �£30 or a 5 litre bottle for �£50 which is how I buy it.

    It certainly works better than domestic stuff and usulally contains a higher concentration of glyphosate salts, the concentrate is a thicker more treacle like solution.

    You can reduce the dilution rate slightly and i have had good results using 100ml in 10 litres.

    PG. We've had our disagreements (never on gardening matters) but I must say that on this we are totally in agreement. P**s off is the term that springs to mind. We may row but we are all gardeners.

    Ah well problem kind of solved. My septic tank soakaway is choked so I've got a digger coming in next week to dig a massive hole in the lawn to lay a new soakaway. Going to have the problem grass area skimmed back by about 6 inches and when the work is completed on the drains try to rebuild a lawn with some new top soil. Bonus is i can sort out the poor drainage at the same time. :( [​IMG]
