Just how in the name of goodness do you get RID of the damn things??? I have an area 2'X 30', all sand(desert)that has NOT been watered for over 2 months. I have dug down 18+ inches and removed all the roots that I can find, but the little buggers are popping up again the next day. They are invasive, hard to control and will grow anywhere. My recommedation to any one that is planning on growing them to plan on looking and caring for them for the rest of thier lives. You are not going to change you mind a couple of years down the road. Those little suckers are still going to be there. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS ON HOW TO GET RID OF THEM.
Thank You for listening to me vent.
