I thought it was 1 TBSP. of Ammonium Sulfate to 1 Gallon of Roundup.
Also, I heard if you add a little bit of dish soap, it will give the
mixture a water-repellant effect in case it rains. This solution killed
my weeds in a flash!
And, a word on bunnies. My cottontail has become a part of the family.
We even have pictures that monitor his growth from tiny bunny to "kid"
bunny. He only nibbles a little here and there. I've been putting some
hot pepper on his favorite flowers and that seems to deter him a bit.
