Weed Seeds
There are at least three ways to get rid of weeds: Stop it. Pull it. Mutate it. Chop it up and eat it like salad. Don't let the seeds fall into the ground. Stop it before it starts. You can go for the root, but that won't do if hundreds of others start, or even another single seed falls into the hole left by a freshly pulled root. That is why corn gluten meal and some patience work better than tweaked weeds which come back year after year. It has been found that corn gluten meal has a ninety percent success rate only after four years. How's that Round Up doing again this year? If you see a dandelion seeding, pop the top and throw it into the trash; to heck with the root! Contrary to popular persuasion, it'll die with some persistance, root and all.

Mutant weeds
I'm not a fan of evolution. GMOs cause more havoc than good. Farmers in the Midwest are running from super weeds, six inches in diameter. Many are turning their backs on GMOs. Besides, organic food tastes better.
