        How long does it take to see results?
        ByJul 3, 2026
        1 Answer | 
        Answer This Question

        You can expect to see results in as little as one hour after spraying Ortho® GroundClear® Year Long Vegetation Killer. However, that's not how fast they'll be controlled. You can expect to see plants start to brown and yellow but complete control may take up to 2 weeks.

                What if you manually cleared out weeds can you apply this to the bare spots where the weeds were so they won't come back or do you have to wait until the weeds come back?

                Hello DeeG! Thank you for your question! Apply Ortho GroundClear Year Long Vegetation Killer Ready-to-Use when weeds are small, aiming at the center of the weed and spraying to cover the leaves. The product remains active in the soil for up to one year, and in heavy clay soil, weed control may exceed one year.

                By|Jul 15, 2026

                  It appears the customet was asking, If the soil is all ready clear of vegitation, and then product was sprayed on the bare ground , will it (ortho) keep the previous vegitation from re emerging.

                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product as complementary for an honest review. I am not too amazed by this product. It works but not as good as other brands. I did not see improvements on weeds. Weeds came back after few days.

                    We're sorry you were disappointed with Ortho GroundClear Year Long Vegetation Killer. To achieve the best results, apply when weeds are actively growing. This is when temperatures are between 60°F and 85°F.
                      Great product
                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is easy to use and dispenses just as easily. It sprays consistently, and the instructions were easy to follow. I like that everything you need comes all conveniently packaged together. It is great at killing off grass and weeds near my flowerbed.

                        Easy to use
                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works well for spot-treating weeds. It’s easy to use, acts quickly, and I noticed visible results within a short time. Great for keeping walkways and driveways weed-free.

                          Super easy to use, spray foam!
                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Ortho GroubdClear weed and grass killer works great and is super easy to use. The foam spray helps you easily tell where you sprayed. This product helps start drying out and killing the weeds as soon as 15min. I would recommend using this product in the evening when the sun isn’t at its peak. I experienced the product taking longer and being less effective.

                          Thank you for providing your feedback about the Ortho GroundClear Year Long Vegetation Killer Refill. We value your insights and are always looking for ways to improve our products and your experience. Visible results after using Ortho GroundClear Year Long Vegetation Killer Refill will be seen within an hour. However, this does not mean the plant will completely die, it means that the plant will start to brown and yellow. For best results, apply when weeds are small; aim at the center of the weed and spray to cover weed leaves. Weeds taller than 6 inches, should be mowed or cut down and debris removed before treatment.

                            Great
                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product literally works, it is a liquid and it comes with a spray nozzle. It takes a few days to kill the vegetation but it is worth it, very easy to use and storage, not heavy at all and works the whole year long.

                                Kills Moss Dead! Weeds, Not So Much
                                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Say what you will about this heavy duty herbicides, but with the right amount of application (and a substantial volume of the solution) you too can free up your yard from moss and invasive grasses. I will say that a gallon doesn’t get you far; I sprayed maybe 40 linear feet, clearing moss from a French drain and a retaining wall. The applicator shoots out a relatively thin volume, but that volume will barely yellow the invasive plant unless you truly drown the roots in herbicide. It was far more effective with moss than crab grass, ferns, or Himalayan blackberries, which is a disappointment given that it’s, yknow… an HERBICIDE.

                                  AMAZING!!!
                                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not only does this work miracles, it is so easy to use! I recently have been more into lawn care and this has been such an important step towards improving my lawn! It felt like the day after I sprayed this the vegetation was already gone! I also like how easy it was to use this! The instructions were so clear and the spray was so easy to use! I never felt scared to use the spray because there was never any leaks! I definitely say to give this a try!

                                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Worked in 12 hours! I spread a small area in early evening and went or the next morning. The place I sprayed was dead . The Spray nozzle did not work as well as I thought it should, which is the reason for the 4 stan rating . Overall, it was a great product and I will use again.

                                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very effective weed killer. Do not use around other plants you would like to keep alive. It does have a strong scent so be aware of wind direction when using. Works quickly and effectively within 15 min weeds were dead and easy to remove. Easy jug to store and the side has a clip for the sprayer.
