I have a real problem with morning glory.  I can make up a bottle of 
that, cut off the tip of one of the vines, and stick it in the bottle, 
letting the plant absorb it naturally.  I think the morning glory would 
eventually die.  I'll ask my parents tomorrow (who are both certified 
master gardeners) if that would work.

Yeah, a lot safer than herbicides like Roundup.

I don't mind at all.  I have learned a lot over the years from everyone 
by hanging out in COOKING.

I know about both of those but have never tried them.

I will do so.
