    250 000 seeds from just one plant, wow, what a successful design in terms of evolution

    What gloves do you have? I've been trying to find gloves for my son that are thornproof and fairly snug fitting. Most men's gloves that are thornproof are really bulky and cumbersome. Being a teenage boy he won't wear women's gloves but your gloves look good. We have a 2 acher plot 2/3 covered in tumble weed, much of it Russian tumble weed, but even the non thorny stuff is hard on the hans after a while.

      These were advantage wg, but I have bee leather gloves made from elk hide I use alot size XL, and tan tactical leather gloves, also great for climbing when I am tagging baby bald eagles, and I need the finger dexterity. www.advantagewg.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=186_195_231

      Incredibly invasive, and they spread very easy if not controlled.

      That was paying back time for Colorado beatles that America infested Russia with potatoes plants.
      Honestly, I came here to see any solution for young tumbleweeds when entire ground is covered. Just for one single plant is no brainer to pull out.
