Just bought me a 26 HP 54 inch mower and should be able to do the deed in about 30-45 minutes with very little work.
    Don't do that. That 5" strip you spray will seep out and be about 2 feet wide once all the grass is dead. I tried it by spraying a little at the base of my fence and ended up with quite a wide strip of dead grass. The weeds were fine, though!

    Ugh, I'v already sprayed the weed killer, wish I had known that earlier. Hope I didn't spray it too heavy and it dosen't creep over a foot. Maybe luck will be on my side for a change.

    The key is set your sprayer for fairly large droplets, you don't want a really fine mist. If the droplets are large it won't drift at all. Once Roundup hits the ground it's done, it won't leach at all unless it is extremely concentrated.
    I spray around the foundation of my house, large trees, and sidewalks about every other year, it really helps with the edging.
