Well I knew the chemicals weren´t working for me .Killed the weeds to ground level but the roots didn´t die .
They came back the next year.
Latest one is Brazilian Verdane -stalky plant grows to about 6 foot , tiny blue flowers , starts setting viable seed at about a foot high . Cattle like it and spread it . Worst I have ever seen.
Did my paddocks with Roundup last year thoroughly and I have new shoots growing from old roots with dead shoots alongside where it died back after spraying. New shoots are thriving . Total waste of time and money .
I am back to a hoe , and its the only thing I will trust to do the job now . Hiring labour to hoe it out.
Brazilan Verdane - Bloody murder !!
Here is a post in a thread I did in 2007 -so tell me I´m wrong

Australia has 7 states and one of them ,South Australia has been holding out and banning GM corn and other seed . Right at this moment the chemical companies are engaged in trying to push GM seed into S.A. regardless of the chaos they are creating in the States. Just so they can sell more chemicals !
