Lilac. How to fight? Help Wanted!

Good time of the day everyone!
Yesterday my husband and I tried to fight lilacs on garden plot. It was necessary to withdraw 3 large lilac bushes from the summer cottage with minimal losses for the garden and for our forces.
Our bushes are sooooo old, withered already in the middle, and along the edge of the bush there is a lot of young growth and this growth stretches almost 3 meters from the bushes.
Yesterday they tried to lime one of the bushes. First, the young growth was dug around the edges, then they broke out the branches from the middle, and then they made a fire in the place of the former bush and burned it out. The effect, of course, is not very good, but at least for a couple of weeks this will stop our lilacs from active reproduction. There are a few young cuts left to use the new methods.
The question is the following: How to lime the roots? And how to remove lilac bushes from under an apple tree. One sits right up close, so far we are afraid to touch it.
Uprooting with hands and feet - I'm afraid my husband won't have enough for this. He tried to lime one bush for 4 hours, then we did not solve the issue with the roots.
I read about herbicides on the Internet, such as ROUNDUP, TORNADO, HURRICANE, etc. But it's scary for an apple tree.
Who will advise.

These are the bushes we have along the fence. part of the cherry weed was removed, lilac remained "for dessert".

Fruits of men's labors.

First, cut down everything. And it’s even easier to mow small branches with a trimmer. Good trimmers take branches up to 3 cm. That is, in five minutes the husband will mow everything that is needed and unnecessary. Only instead of fishing line, you need to put knives. And then let him take an ax, which is not a pity, and cut all the branches right in the ground. The apple tree will not suffer. If new ones come out over the summer, let them cut them again. You can then dig this place several times with a cultivator without going too deep. Then dig it with a shovel. I so exhausted the bird cherry bush. And the bush was not like yours. It was five meters high.

Good trimmers take branches up to 3 cm; I need to have such a dead one, only cut grass and only not dry. but I still can’t afford a more powerful one, I also dream

Ask your neighbors. Someone in the village puts hayfields with such a thing. Or ask if there are knives for your dead one too.

there are no knives on my dead one)))) his motor will not stand it, I thought to independently come up with something like that and ask. and it is not necessary! pay and you will be mowed down

Well then, ax in your hands and cut down everything right in the ground.

noooo! everything is fine with me with lilacs!))))) I'm not going to cut it down, on the contrary, I want to plant it along the back boundary of the plot instead of a fence, this is the author of the post, the lilac has grown)))))

Maybe you will find something useful for yourself here?

Cutting down, as I understand it, is not difficult? But to remove the roots.

I read this post, thanks. The trouble is that there is no trunk as such. only branches and roots. (((((Therefore, it was not possible to use this post. (((

Here, for example, the first way, where you need to fill in saltpeter - can help. If you cut everything down, make holes in several stumps and fill it with saltpeter.
Or method number 4, where to pour salt

I also sprayed the bushes and even drained the wild tornado and all the roots were gone without any problems

I have not been able to grow lilacs for years, they are dying in my swamp, and you don’t know how to get rid of them. Probably we are in the north only happy with every flowering stick

I would also be happy to bloom. BUT our junk is not something to bloom. it can't really grow anymore. a rotten stump sits, and a trifle climbs around. husband said LIME. and dot. I wanted to dig her. young man on the fence. but he is totally against it.

Although the lilac looks very nice and smells good.

Here you can clean up. They began to clean up the lilacs, the old fence began to collapse. It turns out he was on the bushes. Now we need to wait for the repair of the fence.)))

I just started a repair, I wanted to change the wallpaper, I began to tear off the old ones, and the ceiling fell on me), or rather the wallpaper from the ceiling, it turns out that they were holding on to the wallpaper on the wall, I also had to make the ceiling.

Sometimes the lilac runs wild and behaves aggressively.

  2. Cut down the bush and process "Glyphos" or "Roundup" until the entire bush is displayed.
  3. In winter, you can dig snow from the lilac trunk so that it freezes.
  4. If young growth grows, then it can be cut off near the ground and covered with roofing material or thick cardboard on top. During the summer, the site should be rebuilt. Dig up in the spring and you can grow the most unpretentious vegetables.
  5. By cutting down the lilac and removing as many roots as possible, you can tightly cover the ground with absolutely any dense dark material that is not removed for a whole year. In a year, the roots will rot on their own. For reliability, before covering the earth, shed it with a roundup.

With the arrival of warm spring days and the appearance of the first flowers in the garden, a magnificent lilac bush blooms. The riot of magnificent colors and fragrant flowers of the shrub leaves no one indifferent. Almost every gardener has acquired this lush and fragrant shrub in his country house.

But there is one big drawback in the appearance of lilacs on personal plot. It refers to those types of shrubs and trees that, for whatever reason, sprout. This growth begins to interfere not only with the mother bush, but also with the surrounding plants.

Many gardeners are struggling in search of an answer to the question: how to get rid of lilac overgrowth on the site?

Why there is an overgrowth

There are a number of reasons why a lilac bush sprouts, and in order to get rid of new shoots, you should understand what the problem is.

Unsuccessful planting site

The shrub gives shoots if he is not comfortable or he is sick. Thus, he tries to rejuvenate himself in the event of the death of the mother bush.

Insufficient deepening of the root system

Not correct landing seedlings initially, that is, the roots are planted at an insufficient depth. Lilac roots, being on top, suffer from drying out of the soil surface, and if this is the only problem, the root should be deepened. To do this, increase the layer of earth around the bush itself.


Different types of shrub damage

Even minor damage to the integrity of the bark of a lilac bush can lead to the germination of new shoots. If the wood is damaged in the trunk, a distortion of the income is formed nutrients, and the roots begin to rejuvenate the mother bush. Before you remove the lilac from the site, or rather the shoots, you should carefully examine the branches. Do not remove too much overgrowth.

If a shrub suffers from a disease, approximately 2-3 years after its onset, cracks and peeling of wood can be observed in the shrub.

This phenomenon is a harbinger of the fact that the bush begins to gradually die off and let out young shoots in order to maintain its appearance.

The fight against the growth of the lilac bush

With coming spring work on the suburban area, every gardener begins to think about how to bring out lilac shoots. Regular cutting of overgrown with secateurs does not give positive result. In the ground are the remains of the roots of the overgrowth, which begin to grow with renewed vigor, destroying everything in its path.

By adhering to certain tips, you can significantly reduce the young shoots from the shrub. Do not use a shovel to loosen the soil, but you need to use a rake.

In order to find out how to get rid of lilacs on a personal plot or from its shoots, you need to study in more detail two methods of struggle, and choose the most suitable method for yourself. There is mechanical and herbicidal control.


Mechanical

The most effective way to get rid of lilacs or their shoots is mechanical. But do not count on the ease of work. These works must be carried out carefully and with great care.

As soon as the first branches of overgrown lilacs that have not yet grown strong become noticeable, they should be cut as close to the base as possible. Each shoot should be dug up and cut with a small spatula.

If the sprouts are very young, you can just try to gently pull them out with the root. The remaining stumps after cutting down the lilac bush should be uprooted, otherwise new shoots will appear in large numbers.

With the help of the second option, there are high chances of removing the overgrowth forever and getting rid of it from sprouting in the future. With this method of mechanical struggle, the slate should be buried in the ground by about 50 cm.

herbicidal

Herbicide control is considered the most severe. Herbicides must be handled with care. If you do not follow the instructions and caution, you can destroy the lilac bush itself or nearby plants growing.

It is up to each gardener to decide how to remove lilac or its shoots from his site individually, taking into account all the pros and cons of one method or another.

Lilac is the most unpretentious, magnificent and fairly large shrub that almost everyone knows, its aroma cannot be confused with any other aroma. It is hard to imagine a summer house or a country house without lilac bushes, this is the most favorite plant of summer residents. For many gardeners, the biggest problem is that this shrub grows very strongly and nothing interferes with it, but here it can interfere with you and your comfort, other cultivated plants. Most summer residents do not know how to get rid of lilacs so as not to fight it endlessly.

And so, you need to make a recess around the bush, all the thickets were drunk at ground level and covered with fresh droppings or manure (about a bucket for each root). Pull off shoots throughout the summer. Another old one good way to get rid of the roots, it is to fill it with saline, 1 kg of salt per 1 sq.m. but this method is dangerous, because soil can be saline. In addition, in the spring, when young shoots appear, treat them with a herbicide, it will help get rid of the lilac forever.

But if the shrub is already large, the shoots are constantly growing, and your hand does not rise to destroy this beautiful plant, then the question will be how to propagate lilacs in your summer cottage. Best time for this spring, it is necessary to dig out young shoots even before the shoots begin to grow. If this moment is missed, then rooting will go worse.

Although in the summer it is possible to successfully transplant lilac branches as soon as the growth of shoots stops and buds form. This usually happens by the middle of summer, in July. When the leaves on the shoot become dark and large, proceed with the transplant. Choose an open and sunny place and immediately consider that the shrub multiplies rapidly, and therefore it is better if you know in advance that in a few years there will be no problem how to get rid of lilacs.

Lilac is transplanted easily, the main thing is not to commit blunders. If you want to learn how to plant lilacs simply and without worries, plant them on time. The best time is from mid-August to the end of September. The plant is at rest, and there is still a lot of time before winter, thanks to which the roots will have time to take root. The leaves on the bushes should not embarrass you, they retain their green freshness until the very frost, but the absence suggests that it is too late to transplant.

By planting at the right time, we simplify post-plant care, it is enough to water well once. Well, what if you can’t plant on time? Then you need to know how to plant lilacs in spring and not kill the plant. First of all, it is necessary to have time before the awakening of the kidneys. In order to help the lilac survive, you will need to remove flower buds (if any), or leave a couple of pieces to determine the variety.

Moreover, they should be watered regularly, especially in dry weather. After each watering, loosen the soil. It also does not hurt to do the treatment with root formation stimulants. If the plant begins to wither, it is advisable to spray it throughout the summer, but if it looks healthy, you should not use the stimulant.

Not every experienced gardener can fight the root shoots of lilacs. We offer you a method by which it will be possible to prevent the occurrence of unwanted shoots. The method is cardinal, but effective and accessible to everyone.

Before proceeding with the elimination of overgrowth, you need to find out what leads to its occurrence. If the bushes are provided with all conditions for full development, such a phenomenon should not occur. As a rule, overgrowth is caused by the following reasons:

  • Lack of moisture. If you do not resort to systematic watering of the plant, it will take root closer to the surface of the earth, to a place where the earth is moistened by precipitation. Against the background of such development of the root system, shoots are formed.
  • Strong pruning. This one of the most common causes shoot formation. If you delete a large number of branches, the plant will experience a shock, as a result of which it will release young shoots.
  • Physical damage. Mechanical and thermal damage to the plant often leads to the formation of shoots.
  • Exposed roots and ailments.

Before taking measures to remove the overgrowth, it is advisable to make sure that there are no reasons for its occurrence. If they are not eliminated, the struggle will be meaningless and can continue indefinitely.

Is chemistry effective?

The use of chemicals effective method overgrowth destruction. However, herbicides are dangerous for all other crops that grow on the site. The agent is washed off by precipitation, absorbed by the soil, after which it spreads with groundwater throughout the suburban area.
