Default Glyphosate - when to dig in

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.


Thanks everybody for the advice, bit like Voldemort in Harry Potter,
keeps getting killed off and keeps coming back
