How to handle this weed?
Alright, I know. This is neglectful and easy to have prevented. But I didn’t do what I was supposed to in spring, and I let the back yard get way out of hand.
This one weed is killing me though. It has intense pollen in really allergic to, so mask and goggles is required. Naturally, it’s hot as hell, so I’ll be sauna face when I work at it. And the roots are soft and fibrous and the one in the photo is much stronger than I and stuck under a bunch of rocks so I can’t pull it without tearing up a square foot of dirt. Plus it has thistles?? My socks are cactus now and I wore shorts not knowing.
What chemicals can I get at Home Depot to kill this and maybe help fertilize? And if anyone could tell me what weed this is so I can add it to my allergy profile that would be nice…
