texan i was planning on spraying round up on the weeds before i plant buckwheat, not while it is growing i think there was a misunderstanding?

What we meant is the weeds need to be actively growing for the herbicide to work well. Glyphosate isn't needed. It just makes working the soil a bit easier if all plant matter is dead, particularly with discing.

thanks for clarification;)

i will burn if you reccommend it. im going to be plowing then disking before i plant buckwheat in spring and then in the fall, plowing and disking the buckwheat under then planting my other seed. is the roundup really worth it if im going to be working the soil this much?
