My apologies, I'm not a native English speaker. Now that you've educated me and I have learned something, hope you did your part educating yourself just how toxic these things are...

Anyone who thinks of buying it, please don't. This is straight up poison to the soil you put it on. Please do a little research on what it does and how it works and how the parent company works.
It might be a convenient way to kill unwanted plants in the short sight but it effects the soil and it's ecosystem for decades.

Sounds about right for what most people want it for, no? I don't want weeds to grow in the 12" between my shed and fence. Decades is exactly what I'm looking for

I made my own weedkiller for the first time last week using value table salt (25p for 1kg at Morrisons), value malt vinegar (21p for 568ml at Morrisons) and a little dishwashing liquid. Didn't measure it up but poured about 100g of salt with all the vinegar and a few drops washing up liquid into a spray bottle. Gave the weeds growing out of the cracks in my driveway a good spray towards the root, checked a couple of days later and they pulled out easily with dead roots.
Apparently white vinegar works better, but that was more expensive and I was just trying it out to see if it works.
Will be making more up to use, would recommend it as being cheaper and safer (assuming you don't want anything to grow where you spray it).

I have to say I've found most weedkillers to be pretty ineffective, they occasionally kill the weeds but new one's grow in their place almost immediately afterwards.
Good find by the op if you normally buy this though.

Would personally recommend Rosate 36 for a weedkiller, comes in a 5 litre bottle but is concentrated. Lasts a long time and works brilliantly

I need some weed killer, but nowhere near the area coverage of this, so looking at the 1l versions, not sure what brands are best though, I need it to kill a variety of growth, weeds, flowers, a single tree stump as well, not planning to replant at all so don't care about how long it has to be left before planting anything else. Weedol has better reviews on B&Q and Amazon than Resolva, anyone have any other recommendations?
Opening post
The included spray gizmo is crap IMO;
