Horseradish (from lat. Armorаcia) is a genus of perennial herbaceous plants of the cruciferous family, dicotyledonous class. Southeast Europe is considered the ancestral home, and from there it spread throughout Europe and partly became wild. This genus includes only 3 wild species that are found in Europe and Asia.
There are several ways to get rid of this scourge.
The first way
Mechanical destruction is digging up that part of the garden where horseradish grows. It is necessary to cultivate the garden not with a simple shovel, but with special forks designed for soil cultivation.
These forks work like this: they uproot the plant along with the root, and do not chop it up, as a shovel does. Therefore, this type of removal is very effective. Yes, a small part of the root processes will remain in the soil, but their number will be very small.
Second way
This is the use of ammonium nitrate. Everything happens like this: first, the leaves are torn off, then the roots are slightly opened, a small tube is fixed for the subsequent introduction of nitrate. Saltpeter penetrates the roots and destroys them. These actions can be used many times if needed. In the fall, the site will need to be well dug up. You can also use simple nitrate for fertilizers. It is applied at the root every day throughout the season, right before the onset of winter. Saltpeter will not allow the horseradish root to survive and survive until next spring, as it will die from frost in winter.
Third way
The next way to kill horseradish is with salt. The essence of this method is as follows: sprinkle well with salt around the bush. When salt gets into the soil, it becomes an acidic and aggressive environment for horseradish, and it gradually dies. This process will need to be repeated several times per season.
Attention! Do not use this method if there are other crops nearby, as soil acidification can also harm them.
In agriculture, potash salt is also often used to kill horseradish. The bottom line is this: first, the upper green part of the plant is cut off, and then covered with potassium salt. However, among the disadvantages of this procedure is its multiple repetition.
Fourth way
Finally, the last effective way to get shit out of town is to limit the amount of light on it. To use this method, you need to be patient, but the result will not wait long. Everything happens as follows: green leaves are cut off and the whole thing is covered with roofing material or boards. Horseradish will die from lack of light. But you may need this method again next year.
