🌱One of the troubles with getting rid of stubborn perennial weeds like Dock (rumex ssp.), Canada Thistle, etc is that they can regrow from a small chunk of root just laid on top of the soil.

A chunk of dock root with new shoots and new roots growing from it.

Dock is a son of a bitch to get rid of.

I feel this way about mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris L.) in our vineyard, and few other weeds have pushed me so close to herbicide.
