Frequently Asked Questions
Tuffweed’s surfactant package absorbs immediately into the leaves, taking the active ingredient deep into the roots. For most annual weeds such as Mint Weed and Paterson’s Curse visual results will likely occur within 3-7 days of application. In cooler weather results may not be apparent for up to 20-30 days. For “tuff to kill” perennial weeds like Bamboo, Blackberry and Thistle results can take between 2-3 weeks.
It is recommended that weeds are treated when they are under good growing conditions in either the early morning or late afternoon.
