The technique I have seen suggested is to bundle the bindweed into a plastic bag along with some half strength glyphosate. The logic is that as it doesn't kill the leaves as quickly, the glyphosate has time to travel deep into the roots and kill them too.jennyjj01 wrote: ↑Sat May 30, 2026 8:51 pm Today I was also weeding. That blasted bindweed looks to be firing up new shoots at a stupid rate and is growing up and out by about 6 inches a day from the roots I failed to extract. I'm thinking that next week, I'll spot glyphosphate the new growth in an attempt to destroy some roots. Risky as It'll encourage growth.
I need to get my act together in the back garden. I have lesser bindweed in there which is just as much of a pain and should really try this trick on it.
have to wait until tomorrow to speak to prescription department to change to a different type.
