If what you have is Polygonum convolvulus, black bindweed,
(I know various species of our native Eriogonum as "wild buckwheat"),
it's a late-germinating annual. Watch for it to come up, and chop
it off with a hoe. Get it young enough and you only have to
scuffle the soil.

Add mulch. Good weed suppressant, and the raspberries will like it too.

And forget about flamethrowers. Definitely overkill.
