I've got a lot of Speedwell growing where I has peas this year, would you pull it out or can it be dug in.

Thanks

 :)Although it's an annual, they are normally loaded with seeds, so I would uproot it now, which shouldn't be a problem as they are quite shallow rooted.
I may take my time.....but i'll get there in the end.

If it is Veronica officinalis, it is a perennial and I wouldn't dig it in, as this might just replant bits for next season IMHO

Right, I'll have it all out.  It does come out very easily, just thought i might be able to use it like a green manure.

Thanks
