  Tested this cocktail for a few rounds of spot treatment (returned to spot treat 1-2x/year for a 2-3 years. simpler cocktail and required less herbicide to carry and just as effective as other foliar treatment.

  Used to use 2% Round UP Pro, 3% G4, 5% Crop Oil and 90% Water. It was burning the plants before the plants could translocate the herbicide. Dropped the percentages and applied a lighter foliar treatment. Seemed to do the trick. On it's way to being eradicatedf from Oahu!
