Dig out the roots when you find it. If you can’t get at the roots then get as much as you can. Look under slabs etc. It wonders around on the surface under them.
Oh the satisfaction of finding a root motherload. Pretty sure I dug 30 foot of root out earlier in the spring. And it’s still coming back.
To make my life easier I’ve dug out 2 bamboo balls earlier this week for a new veg patch. Apparently it can take up to 3 years to get rid of it completely. Oh joy.
This is new veg patch though. It now has boards around it, a netting frame nearly complete and a net on the way.
Other than onions what can I plant so late?
Carrots - Autumn King type
Beetroot
Radishes
French beans (I tend to stick to dwarf non climbing)
Winter greens/Cabbages
Probably plenty more I can’t think of.
