The wrong rate of Roundup (Glyphosate) and this can happen



April 2016 the incorrect rate of Glyphosate was applies.

May: signs of browning towards the lower fronds. As the weeks went by the fronds started to brown upwards.

August 4, 2016: Are the pictures below











You can see that the weeds are back


You can see the x-mas palms in the back starting to show signs of decline



On 10-26-16
Here is a follow up on the Landscape that did have the incorrect rate of Round up (Glyphosate) applied. I had to use my phone which has the front glass broken off so the pictures are terrable.



 The Pygmy Dates are tough and you can see some of them bounced back


 The Pygmy Palm did not make it.

  1. We find it HIGHLY IMPLAUSIBLE that glyphosate is the culprit. If excessively high rates were used, then why is not the surrounding grass affected ?!?! Were the palm leaves actually laboratory-tested for glyphosate ?!?! We believe there is another agenda at work here - where there is a bogus attempt to challenge the safety of glyphosate.

    A quick search yielded far more likely reasons for this problem ...

    THE EFFECT OF GLYPHOSATE ON HEALTH IS A MYTH ! ― On May 16th, 2016, the United Nations announced its assessment that GLYPHOSATE IS UNLIKELY TO CAUSE CANCER IN PEOPLE and that GLYPHOSATE IS UNLIKELY TO POSE A CARCINOGENIC RISK TO HUMANS EXPOSED TO IT THROUGH FOOD ! The United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization ( FAO ) and World Health Organization ( WHO ) have looked at ALL pertinent published and unpublished studies to assess the health RISK to consumers from dietary exposure to glyphosate residues in food. The trends AGAINST pesticide bans and restrictions are relentless and unceasing. NO ONE WANTS THIS #@!!% BAN NONSENSE !
