It would be helpful if you talk about a particular weed to show us a picture of it. That way we can ID them in the garden and take your advice when it applies to our garden. Thanks!

Great video! Thank you for the entertaining, relevant content.

Glad you enjoyed it!

On the glyphosate issue, I belive the U.S. has banned it for individual use but not for commercial.

[@IllinoisExtensionHorticulture]

Glyphosate is still available for general use. Some states, counties, and municipalities have banned its use, though.
