    I don`t mind being called pedantic. It means I am offering the correct advice to people who don`t know the answers.:gnthb:

    Well, if we are not allowed to use Sodium Chlorate after May then I haven't got it in my chemical cupboard :wink:. I haven't got any Potassium Nitrate or Glacial Acid there either :hehe:. So the Eu is safe from me. :rotfl:

    Nothing wrong with having some KNO3 in the shed, the safety sheet says its not listed in EC Directive 67/548/EC so its not considered a dangerous substance. Nitric, sulphuric and phosphoric.. no glacial :)

    Whats the best (legal) herbicide that you can get??

    That Pistol seems expensive and really we want a Kill em all product not one that that "only" covers most things.

    Also if any one has any Sodium Chlorate then of course PM me :)

    As Dai says, Glyphosate is probably the best. :wink: But so expensive over a large area.:(

    KNO3 is fine unless you try mixing it with sugar :hehe: and although they don't list glacial acid it is the pure form of C2H4O2 and highly corrosive. Don't try putting it neat on your chips :rotfl:

    Daitheplant is right, and, because of all the right key words that have been used on this thread, the FBI will be looking at this thread right now.

    The FBI can't deal with it as they only work within the USA but they can hand it over to the CIA to chase us for Chemical Inappropriateness Activities. s00k

    Tee Hee,

    No, they'll probably just hand it over to our anti terrorism lot, who will decide we're probably not terrorists so they will hand it to the CPS, who will decide wether on not to prosecute the site owners for encouraging illegal activities.

    Thats the way it works.
