Search in the headings (Search Forum) of: Questions & Observations; Controling Unwanted Plants; Balance of Plants in the Environment; and Help. If you still have questions after reading pertinent stuff in these old posts then come back and ask an unanswered question and someone with experience should be able to give you some more info.
