Bindweed is The Devil – Reddit Post
I’ve been battling bindweed in a few areas since we bought our house a couple years ago. So far I’m just digging and pulling, trying to get at the bloody things all the way down. I probably lose more than I win, but I think I’m slowly making progress.
Today, one of them very graphically reminded me what I’m up against: about 2-3 inches just barely peeking above ground, and around 3-4 feet, with more branches, under ground. !#@$%@$%&$
This particular invader was happily growing and spreading in and around and through some thin plastic sheeting that previous owners had buried a few inches down, presumably in hopes of preventing this very kind of plant activity. Bindweed laughs at your puny plastic sheets!
