Gardener Fedor shared his many years of experience in the fight against wheat and told how to get rid of the weed finally

The plant of wheat has a lot of useful properties for humans. However, in the beds it turns into a malicious weed, which is sometimes very difficult to get rid of. Fortunately, nothing is impossible! Especially if the case is taken by an experienced summer resident who has not seen this in his life.



We learned how to effectively and easily clean the garden from unnecessary weed. We are in a hurry to share all the wisdom with you!

The plant of wheatgrass Pyrei is a cereal plant that is so strong that it is able to penetrate even a wooden board with its spikelets. The height of such a weed can reach 50-100 centimeters. And the main problem is that it fills the entire space and closes other crops in the beds from the sun.

The root system is also constantly growing. This affects the yield of plants. Due to weed, the soil loses its nutritional properties, dries up and as a result can become infertile. And in the thickets of wheatgrass like to settle various insects. They can cause additional damage to landings.



It is clear that this neighbor in the beds should be disposed of as soon as possible. But it's not easy to do it quickly. We advise before the beginning of each summer season to engage in the prevention of weed. It is necessary to qualitatively dig all the land, weed it and get rid of any remnants of weed.

How to deal with a weed in the area Pyrey filled all the beds? We need to act here and now. The easiest way is mechanical weed destruction. It is very important to get rid of the root system of the plant. If not, it will grow again.



With dry and sandy soil, weeding works well. You can simply pluck the wheatgrass with your hands, and you will see that not only the green part comes out of the ground, but also the roots. In this case, you need to see whether there are parts of the roots in the ground. That's enough to make the wheat grow again.

Heavy and clay soil must be completely dug. That's the only way you can get rid of the weed. Just pull the rhizome out of it with your hands is unlikely to succeed. For this, they use not so much shovels as special garden pitchforks. You need to dig literally the entire territory where there is land. All roots and sprouts must be burned.



If there is not much wheat on the site, the plant can be covered with something, thus limiting its access to the sun. Time will pass and the root system of the weed will weaken. And you can easily snatch all of her leftovers.

Soil mulching and other ways to control weeds In small areas are often practiced soil mulching. In spring, the ground should be covered with a thick layer of mulch, which will prevent the appearance of weeds. Also, mulching is used where cultures with a weak root system grow.

The fact is that weeding there is extremely difficult to do, otherwise you can damage the roots of the plants themselves. And digging is not worth it at all. As mulch use fallen leaves, straw, spunbond and others.



Unfortunately, mulching does not make sense if the roots of the wheatgrass have grown much. In this case, weeding is not always effective. You have to resort to the use of special tools that are sold in gardening stores. Herbicides are best at this task.

The task of herbicides is to weaken and then completely destroy the roots of the weed. The product must be diluted in water in certain proportions, you will read all the information on the package. Different manufacturers may have different proportions.



After 7 days, you will notice that the wheat is starting to turn yellow. Get rid of it completely in this way will turn out within 1-3 weeks. It all depends on the amount of weed and the weather conditions in which it grows.
