What does weed killer do to auxins?

Weed killers, or herbicides, often contain synthetic auxins that disrupt the normal growth patterns of plants. These chemicals mimic natural plant hormones, leading to uncontrolled growth, especially in broadleaf weeds. The excessive auxin levels can cause abnormal growth responses, such as twisting, swelling, and eventual death of the plant, while typically leaving grasses unharmed. This selective action allows for effective weed control in agricultural and garden settings.
