Definitely a thin skinned newbie ... Imagine if he'd really
gotten flamed! Oh, well ...
ObCH - Although I should have started seeds more than a month
ago, I haven't yet. This past year, bermuda grass finally
overcame my chile beds. I've tried digging, but the darn stolons
are so deep, I can't get them all (and digging up a producing
pepper plant to get rid of the grass seemed so counterproductive
- well, I'd have a clearer garden if I had ...) and it comes
right back with a vengeance :-(> I'll have to use a monocot
specific herbicide to get rid of it (and keep my present chile
plants) - and to do that I have to wait until the stuff is
actively growing in a couple of months. Guess I'll have to wait
until fall to plant any new varieties.
Has anyone on the list battled bermuda? What did you do?
