I have fought 5 generations of gallant soldier weeds in my vegetable garden this year. These plants drop thousands of seeds and keep the weeds coming even after the plants are all pulled by the roots. We have just gotten all of the GS weed plants out of the garden (in garbage bags) and the garden is now down to bare soil and ready to be rototilled for next spring. I am sure there are lots of tiny GS seeds on the top of the soil that flew off the plants as we were pulling them. I'd love some help in knowing how to keep the seeds from germinating next spring and summer. Before we rototill the garden, if we spray vinegar on the top of the soil, will it kill the seeds? Is there anything else known to kill them?? I don't think my back can stand another year of such intensive and constant pulling of these weeds. I don't have any other spot that is sunny enough for a veggie garden or I'd just start over. Help please??
