My daughter sprayed Round-Up on my weeds where I wanted to plant tomato plants. Can I do that?

Last year where we grew tomatoes, a bunch of big weeds popped up. So, I had her spray with Round-Up.





Now I don't know if I should plant tomatoes in that spot. What do you think?

Once the weeds are dead till and plant. Round Up only works on a green leaf surface and is neutral in the soil. Try to wait till the weeds are dead to the root that's what you sprayed the herbicide for to get rid of them. We made a gallon of salsa yesterday and 3 more quarts today. We still have loads of tomatoes. Its getting hot they will not last much longer.
Reply:shouldn't be a problem but I would wait a day or 2 and water well before. Also add new soil when you plant





a good tip when you do plant your tomatoes is to plant them deep and bury almost the entire stem. Or plant sideways with just the top few leaves exposed.


This way it will root along the stem and give you a much sturdier healthier plant which in turn means more fruits.
Reply:After a period of time [check directions] the ground will become ready to plant again. Round-Up is effective to check weeds, but for a short time.
Reply:Let the weeds die, remove the plants, water well and plant your tomatoes. Round up has been used on our food crop fields for decades.





You should always wash your fruit and vegetable before consuming too.
Reply:you can plant them there but i like to move them around from year to year
