I have gone to a no-till garden the last several years and this stuff keeps coming back, worse year after year. Round-up won’t kill it. Guess I’ll have to wait until the garden plays out this year and get aggressive with it. Tarp over it? I’d rather not buy a 2.5 gallon bottle of some fancy weed killer for 250 square feet of garden. Other ideas? I posted about this before, but can’t find it.

I finally gave up and built raised beds. I still had a little grow through the heavy groundcover in the bottom of the bed and through 15" of compost. One pulling up of each has either finally starved the nut, or it's just laying there waiting on next spring. If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14

It will burn it down at 6oz per gallon but it’ll just grow right back from the nut. You can spray it 5 times a summer for 3 years and not kill it.

Both do have a little soil residual, but if you go late this summer and don’t do a winter garden, it should be fine for spring. If you do the things you need to do when you need to do them then someday you can do the things you want to do when you want to do them.

It ruins a chufa field if it gets established in it. All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.
