i personally don't faff about digging weeds like bindweed docks couch grass and no plastic sheeting we use roundup and its done the trick for those listed and yes we still get annual weeds that we can deal  once you spray with roundup as its a systemic weedkiller it kills the weeds down to the roots and we found after spraying its really cleaned the ground and maid cultivation better without those troublesome weeds

I cant dig up the bindweed in my garden as it's spreading from my neighbour who doesnt give a monkeys about it. Thankfully it only has 3 ft of my soil to grow in before it hits a slabbed patio, my growing beds are 20 feet away from here, its growing and coming up through the slabs and althoughI do my very best not to use chemicals its round up tree and stump I use to keep this * under control.
