Main problem this year is the garden too wet to stand on!
(and often too cold and windy as well)


Yes, that is a problem.
Stanley knife to make an opening for glyphosate? Shroud the nozzle of
the sprayer? Don't know.
I am not at all good with the latin names, so when I say potato or
broad bean, Am I being ambiguous? But point taken! Soleirolia
soleirolii is exact.

For example my solanum tuberosum are growing nicely. Or my Vicia faba
have Simulium. I prefer being ambiguous. It's easier. Just having a
laugh, cachinnus or cachinnatio, but that IS ambiguous?

I take it you don't know the plant Baz,
opening the stem would be a problem.

It is common around this area, David.
I just scrape with my boot and spray with glyphosate.
I would have thought slashing the mass with a Stanley knife would do the
trick, I will try it when I next see some.
