Ultra-Kill Ultra-Kill Weed & Grass Killer concentrate is a lousy product

Construction & Repair

I've used Round-Up before with decent results but this time I thought I'd save a buck or two by buying Ultra-Kill Weed & Grass Killer concentrate. The 32 oz. Bottle is supposed to make 12 gallons of spray. I mixed a quart spray bottle at the recommended concentration and sprayed some grass and weeds that were encroaching on an ornamental landscape area. I expected them to be dead the next day but they weren't so I waited a couple more days. They just kept growing so I doubled the concentration and sprayed again. 3 - 4 days later a few had turned yellow on some of the leaves but most were just as green as ever. I doubled the concentration again and sprayed a third time.

Now 3 days later two or three weeds look like they may have died but most everything is still green and growing.By now there are only about 6 - 8 oz. Left so today I poured that full strength into my spray bottle and hit the weeds a 4th time. I don't know yet if that worked but I shouldn't have had to spray full strength on a concentrate that was supposed to make 12 gallons. I got less than a gallon and may not have killed the weeds in a fairly small area (about 35 sq. Ft). The bottle says it should cover 3,600 sq. Ft. At that rate I did not save money... I wasted money. No, I am not happy with this product. I'm not only disappointed, I'm disgusted. Time AND money wasted. I will be taking the empty bottle back to Lowe's and complaining there too, and buying a different brand next time.
