Re: [CHICKENS-101] dandelions vs Ragweed

 

 
Hi!
  I watched a news show on ragweed that said it has become so resistant to poisons and weed killers that the farmers are suffering badly. It is so bad it can break their combine machines in the fields because it grows so very large and tough and they are being forced to have their crops picked by hand instead of machines. It said that there wouldn't be a solution to the problem till at least 10 or 15 years from now. I pull it up when small. After it gets big it goes so deep my hubby has to do the pulling!

Does anyone know if dandelions would kill off ragweed? We are overrun
with ragweed for the past couple of years and I am getting desperate
because I am allergic to the nasty stuff.
Our hens free range, but they don't seem to care for ragweed - how bad
is it when even the hens won't eat it!!
I would love to have dandelions growing here and would plant them if I
thought they would help.
Does anyone know how to get rid of ragweed????
Thanks
Debbie
