I've been pulling weeds from an untended plot. Most are over 4' tall.
It's slow and my muscles are sore. Is it better just to cut them
down to the ground or should I continue trying to put out roots and

Are they perennials or annuals?

If they're annuals, I would just keep them from going to seed. If
they're perennials, though, you're going to have to get those
roots sooner or later. And if you wait until later, those roots will
be deeper and harder to pull.
