I have been trying to kill a patch of rhubarb, weed killer won't do it,

have been trying to dig it out (down to 4 foot), and it still goes down

Is there a easy way to do it.

I do wonder if rhubarb will grow from those roots, the rhubarb I have grown
allways has a faily large lump from which the stalks grow, I would have
thought that a minor root would just die.

Have you tried just leaving it for the moment and see whether it does
regrow?
