That is amazing work. Crazy it has taken 100% glyphosate!!

Will the jasmine return?
It's just easier with 100%, you don't have to worry about missing a few bits, you pop a drop or two on each scraped section and it knocks a lot of the plant around.
There is still Jasmine in there but it's not a carpet like it was, in some parts it was probably 2" thick of stems(runners?) it was starting to drop/kill trees. You can see one small tree that still has a curve in it from the weight of the Jasmine hanging off it.
Now the new weed is Madeira Vine, I haven't had much to do with it yet but the group has removed about 220lb of tubers.
People were also planting Arum Lily and they asked if they could keep it in the reserve, I threw a tantrum and ripped it all out but it's a forever weed so it will be back.
Has that got one of those old 4WD compasses on the handlebar?
Will there be a follow up post in the Darwin thread?
I can't find any video. I wanna see him ragdoll at 40 mph. That thing is as big as a sedan.

Back in the day we had a skills course set up in the basement of the shop. After an epic urban ride we were all hanging out and somebody grabbed a recumbent and started trying the skinnies on it. Hilarity ensued.
I need to work out what the one vine/creeper plant (weed) is that we have. I dug most of the soil out of one of our veggie boxes a couple of weeks ago, pulling up all the roots I could. It's already coming back in the planter and we have it all over the place across our plot.
As much as I don't want to go chemical, I think it will need more than a salt/vinegar/dish soap mix to get nuked.
FTSBindweed, perhaps?
Now I know the name I can hate it even more.
edit: Get rid of it by digging up the roots....that go 10ft/3m deep....yeeeeeahhhh....
How to Get Rid of Bindweed: 9 Steps (with Pictures) - wikiHow
Bindweed looks innocent enough at first with it's large, pretty blooms, but it can quickly invade your yard and weaken your plants, shrubs, and even trees. Fortunately, even though bindweed is stubborn, it's not invincible. Taking the...

AND it has a lefty, fuck yea
Be careful with the salt, vinegar & dishsoap. Too much of any of those will ruin your soil. Hate to say it, but you’re going to do less damage to the soil using roundup correctly.
Sounds like bind wind - got pics?
Yeah, SS said that above and the website pics confirm it. PITA stuff, I was surprised just to see how deep the root system goes when I did try to dig some up fully.
Yeah - we just fight it year after year. There's no getting all the roots and there's no fully getting rid of it. It's a battle.
I hate that shit and dont even try to fight it unless its pulling it locally away from whatever I want to grow.
Maybe try covering the whole area in a thick black plastic cover for a season. Haha that should knock em back.
Pictures man, pictures!
I'm interested in what has become a weed in other people's parts of the world.
Never plant an Australian Tree Fern, haha!
EDIT- Oh Bindweed, I'm sure I've seen it around.
If it doesn't ooze sap when you take a veggie peeler to it I'd drip some glyphosate on to it and see what happens. That method doesn't work on everything but it makes the most of your poison.
I have some Monstera Deliciosa to try to kill off somehow, I've never been able to get rid of it.

Ah bind weed is stupid but harmless. Just gotta knock it back where you don't want it. Theres no getting rid of it.
Did ur ass burn?
Zappa Cat?? I approve.
exactly that combination is not good
Glufosinate and 2-4D are significantly better at controlling broad leaf plants than glyphosate. But the stuff in the farm section not the water that they have in the garden sections.
Had a neighbor ask why his weed killer didn’t work. It was .002% glufosinate. Ya, that’s a jug of water there dude.
