I've managed to remove dandelions from of my yard by mechanically digging them up by the roots (also did the same to buckhorn --- next on the schedule is broadleaf plantain) after one year where I just tore off each plant at the surface and then put a piece of rock salt on the opening of the root.
My daughter was quite put out when there was a contest in her biology class for bringing in the longest dandelion stem.

- WillAdams 2y agoWhen I was much younger and times were quite difficult for me, I just about lived on dandelion salad for the better part of a year (and only escaped getting poisoned by an herbicide because I had a habit of blanching the plants I was planning on eating by putting a rock on top of them the day before).
