If you are dead set against using glyphosate, then the only option is digging I'm afraid.
You could cover the bits of the plot that you haven't got to yet.....cardboard, weed suppressant fabric.....then you could plant pumpkins or courgettes through a few holes...at least you would get a crop while you get round to digging that bit.


I'll move the post to 'grow your own' so you get more replies ;)
