The bullfrog uses it on our tomato plants.
Unfortunately the weeds love it too.
Weeds have become resistant to it. It even makes them grow bigger!

As with any herbicide, through the process of selection, some weeds will develop resistance. Any farmer who hasn't gone bankrupt knows to rotate herbicides and use a multi-prong approach. That means herbicides, cover crops, and crop rotation.

They are referring to this:

"Plus the industrial solvent dihydrogen monoxide!"

It DOES make weeds grow bigger :)

I was going to give this whole thing a measure of conscious thought, but then somebody told me that there is actually no such thing as conscious thought. :? Who'da not thunk it! :shock:

Dihydrogen monoxide can make nearly anything grow larger.

That was a great show! It's a shame it only went one season. I wonder if there will ever be a reboot and more seasons...
