What herbicide is best for orchard grass control?

• <div><p>Glyphosate and other non-selective herbicides can kill orchard grass, but they will also kill the surrounding plants. Also, not all areas allow the use of glyphosate due to its environmental impact—<a href="https://www.epa.gov/ingredients-used-pesticide-products/glyphosate">which the EPA describes</a> as a "potential risk to terrestrial and aquatic plants and birds, and low toxicity to honeybees."

Do weeds grow through rubber mulch?

• <div><p>Weeds can grow through rubber mulch, but it depends on if you removed all the weeds in your garden beforehand. Weeds already in the soil can grow even when using rubber mulch. However, that doesn’t mean that your garden will be littered with rubber and weeds, but it does mean that the occasional weed might still pop up. Another way you can increase your weed suppression is by using landscape fabric as a second layer. </p></div>
