Ive treated my last bit of ruff land with round up this week, thing is ive got about a litre left but i want more!. can i add water to the concentrated stuff or will it loose its power? am i right in think the active ingrediant (glysophate) works even if thined out? the worse is treated now i just need some for backup

Depends on where you got it, if you got it from a garden centre etc then it will already be quite weak cf Agricultural strength stuff, if you dilute it it may be too weak, especially for perennial toughies like bindweed and thistles etc.
