Unfortunately it’s a reality of getting rid of invasives etc. I’ve transformed a large property offer the past 7 years from infested with every invasive you can imagine to a healthy beautiful ecosystem, prairie, wood lot, ponds, shoreline etc. all thriving now full of life and native species yes. Impossible without some roundup unfortunately. I was once like you. I’ve learned.

I liked this video until he mentioned Glyphosate!! WHy do they keep mentioning this?! Terrible advice ugh

Glyphosate has been studied more than any other herbicide out there... there is no evidence to prove it is harmful to humans. It is almost impossible to suppress weeds in a newly reclaimed field prior to the development of a mulch layer and years of weed suppression. If you have a better alternative to starting a stand let us all know you'd make a lot of money selling your idea.

There’s no such thing as a weed… they’re not one family of plants… that’s just a subjective label you’re applying most often to important pioneer species that often help in succession of eventually the more desirable grasses… there’s no short cutting nature… people aren’t smarter than nature…

Herbicides are a tool that one should use judiciously only if necessary. But the reality is that sometimes they really are necessary, I have been trying to do rehab on my own yard for almost four years that was taken over by Himalayan blackberry while the previous owners neglected it due to their disability. I tried digging the roots out mechanically for two years, and I could just never get them all and they would grow back stronger. They were under my foundation, getting into the siding on my house, and the taproots would get under concrete and be inaccessible for digging so yes I broke down and used an herbicide. One application in the fall really made a huge dent and now I able to fill in my yard with native plants that participate more in our local food web and produce more caterpillars for birds.
