If you do that to apple trees you'll kill every one of them. Mine die if you even whisper the word "glyphosate" near them.



I mix 2.5-3oz per gallon of 41% glyphposate in my 25 gallon sprayer and spray around all my Yates apples, persimmons, Japanese persimmons, crab apples, pears and sawtooths. Never had any issues with trees dying. Been doing it around some for 12-15yrs and others planted as recently as last year. I am just careful as to not spray the trees themselves. I have noticed glyphosate mixed at these levels will stunt my knockout roses in my flower beds at home but hasn't not killed them.
