Weeding a tad late. Oh well. Dandelions are pretty easy to control
by weeding alone, *if* you do the weeding before they go to seed.
Mulch should thoroughly smother the seeds.


about half of the dandelions are breaking off about 6 to 8 inches down.

Not to worry. Dandelions won't regrow from the tap root; just get
the crown. (Catsears aka false dandelions may regrow.)
