Following earlier advice in this forum I am putting bindweed leaves into a
polythene bag and then spraying into the bag securing with a tie.

Isolated growths I am just spraying.

When would the root be effectively dead allowing me to dig in or pull up.

The instructions suggest a few weeks but can a dieing plant recover or is
it effectively dead once the leaves start to shrivel.

just leave the root system to die off
