Hoping maybe someone on here might have some experience in getting rid of sorghum. I purchased a house where the previous owners planted sorghum in the beds around the house. My wife and I want to plant something else but the sorghum has taken everything over, its moving into my lawn now as well.
In the past two weeks I've tried to clear out a single bed. I used 5 gallons of round up on the one medium sized bed. I sprayed, waited, sprayed, tilled up the bed, sprayed, sprayed and tried spraying again. The roundup had no impact. I tried tearing the plants out. However, I'm pulling them from the root and they have a crazy hardy root system. I pulled out a garbage bag full the first time, when they re-sprouted I went a bit more thorough and pulled out 6 additional garbage bags full. Followed by an additional two bags a few days after that. Tomorrow I'll be at it again. I dig them out and wait for new sprouts and dig them out some more.
There has to be a better way. Anyone have any advice that might help me out? It would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
