Bindweed Aarghhh!

[moggssue]

When I first got my plot in December there was no sign of bindweed, only nettles and dandelions and annuals, but now its everywhere. I'm just pulling it up whenever and wherever I see it - which is difficult amongst tiny seedlings. Think I might try the paint on stuff in the autumn as beds become clear of veggies.

I'm also suffering with chickweed which even though easier to pull out roots and all just will not leave me alone, even that keeps on coming back - must love the healthy well fed soil!

Good luck with yours Petal - let us know how you get on as the season goes along wont you.

Tumbleweed.

Superb if you've got 5 minutes and nothing else to do!
Weeds in flowerbeds, weeds in lawns,
dandelions... anything...

I wouldn't do that, just incase it reincarnates itself. Just burn the stuff.
