These grow about 4-5 inches per day, and pop up out of nowhere. I pull them up every few days, and new ones just pop up in a day or two. SUPER annoying, and Glyphosate did nothing. Sprayed a healthy coating on the dirt before I mulched. These resilient bastards gave no fucks. Is this milkweed? Best way to eradicate?

idk.

glypohsate doesn't really have any pre-emergent properties...it'll only kill what's alive when it's sprayed. so that would explain why glyphosate didn't do much to keep it from popping up later.

Looks like I need dicamba.

roundup that shit

5/26/2017 1:20:56 PM

Roundup is glyphosate.

appears to be some sort of magical beanstalk. Let it grow a little bigger and then hit the leaves with glyphosate climb it.

Re: Bullet

No shit. He sprayed RU on the soil. thats not how it works

Dank

Well, yes I sprayed the soil, but mainly because I had a ton of other already present weeds that needed to be nuked too. But these little fuckers were already "growing" underneath the surface. I know how glyphosate works, but was just hoping it would somehow make it's way into the miniature rhizomes (or whatever you wanna call them at that stage).

5/26/2017 2:50:06 PM

well if you spray it now on the leaves it should work

5/26/2017 3:53:25 PM

About to head outside and change the brake pads on the grocery getter and mix up a gallon or two of glyphosate to send these things straight to hell.

you could give in and call it a butterfly corner.

I actually sold that house and moved to Apex. No longer my problem

I DID glyphosate those bastards though. Took about 5 full days, but they gradually died a slow death.

Sativa I think

9/14/2017 1:46:15 PM

Sticky Icky

Kinda looks like Carissa Holly sprouts.

Not sure though.

9/18/2017 7:19:57 AM

Don't think it'd be Carissa. That wouldn't germinate from seed so readily I don't believe. And it'd have alternating leaves not opposite.

9/18/2017 5:36:17 PM

Triclopyr 4 would end these things if RU doesn't work

9/19/2017 3:03:56 PM

that's some of that bin laden weed
