How to defeat goutweed in your garden: here's where the weed's Achilles heel is
Goutweed is one of the most malicious weeds, but it also has an Achilles heel.
We'll tell you what you need to do to defeat goutweed in your garden.
How to get rid of goutweed
The weak point of goutweed is its love of light. Even in partial shade, the length of the shoots of the goutweed rhizome is reduced several times.
Your task is to sow the area occupied by goutweed with antagonist plants so that they create a solid carpet through which goutweed cannot break through.
You need to act as follows. First, we clear the area of goutweed roots as much as possible - we dig it up and select the roots.
Next, we plant a lawn that grows on alkaline soils (goutweed likes acidic soil).
We pre-fertilize the soil according to the needs of the lawn.
We mow the lawn constantly. At first, goutweed will still appear on the lawn, but later it will completely disappear.
