jacky54 Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Anywhere in Bkk? tried the obvious places like Homepro and Homeworks and garden centres, but they only seem to have stuff to make plants grow not to kill off grass and weeds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiang mai Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 All purpose Roundup is widely available in Thailand under it's Thai name, look for glyophosphate in a red plastic bottle, careful the stuff is deadly and a confirmed carcinogenic.

Madgee Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 HomePro sell Glyphosphate 48. It's the same as 'roundup', same company I think. Various weed killers are available at good local garden centres but don't expect to find one with labels in English! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jingjoke Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Here ya go! This is the standard roundup container found in Thai garden centers. The Thai name is the equivalent of 'roundup'. About 270B and the liter bottle goes a very long way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thailanddogerator Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 So lucky us ! more poison for the planet <3 Monsanto roundup hides its name in Thailand ? Why ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiang mai Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 So lucky us ! more poison for the planet <3 Monsanto roundup hides its name in Thailand ? Why ? You're too funny! Glyhosphate is the chemical name and it's manufactured and sold by hundreds of different companies world wide, including Thai and Chinese companies, as a broad spectrum weedkiller. Roundup is the name of Glyphosphate manufactured and sold by Monsanto. Sorry, no conspiracy theory to be had here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samuijimmy Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 (edited) Here ya go! roundup.jpg This is the standard roundup container found in Thai garden centers. The Thai name is the equivalent of 'roundup'. About 270B and the liter bottle goes a very long way. Glad you found my previously posted image, saved me finding it again! The thing with Roundup, it's really for use on perennial weeds, as it takes a good ten days to kill the plant/ weed ... On annual weeds, most bloom and seed before roundup works! Even cut off seed heads of perennial weeds if present... that's the biggest problem people never seem to understand! Gramoxone works faster so is better on annual weeds.... but it does not kill the roots of perennial weeds even though the tops will look brown/ dead after a day or two ! All chemicals need to be used with caution and safety! Sorry to OP no idea where to buy in BKK.... Edited November 4, 2015 by samuijimmy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyDan Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 I've recently stumbled into K.U. Garden. While it's all pet food on the ground floor, the upstairs was all gardening and irrigation supplies - way better selection than the HomePros nearer to inner-city BKK (LadPro/BangNa). Also, be sure you can communicate decently in Thai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonsalviz Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Also have Paraquat. These things kill almost everything if you mix it right. You have to miss the bits you want to keep. If you are spraying weeds on grass it will die also. They do have broadleaf weed killer here but you'd have to probably check in the farming forum for an answer.
