Morning Glory Weed Control
- 1). Place a pair of protective gardening gloves over your hands. Thoroughly wet the soil to help support root removal with a garden hose. After the soil is moist, grab the morning glory stem at its thickest point. Make sure your hands are as close to soil-level as possible, and pull in a vertical motion. Carefully pull the root system out of the ground to prevent breaking the stem from the root. Continue until the entire root system is removed.
- 2). Place the pulled morning glory weed plant and roots into a trash bag. Make sure to not maneuver the weed too much as this increases the possibility of spreading its seeds.
- 3). Cultivate the ground with a hoe after the root system has been removed. Do not cultivate deep into the soil, especially when working close to gardens, so you do not damage the roots of other plants.
