Yes, that special Round Up says on the label not to use it if you want to plant in that area soon. (2 wks).

That is why I choose the regular Round Up...

The ivy is dying back now. We painted some on other ivy locations where it was intergrowing with valuable other plants.
My husband used a paintbrush and only painted those leaves, on Sunday. Some have started dying back already.

I just saw a news article that said any food grown in RoundUp soil has harmful effects on humans! That stuff makes me nervous, as I don't usually resort to poisons/herbicides. But the poison Ivy here is so awful this year...something had to be done, with it.
