	Identification and Control of Field Bindweed
		Field bindweed (creeping jenny), a deep-rooted perennial weed that is well adapted to North Dakota climate and environment, is a native of Europe and western Asia and was introduced to this country during colonial days.
		Field bindweed can be spread by seed, root fragments, farm implements, infested soil adhering to the roots of nursery stock, root growth from infested areas, and by animals.
		Field bindweed can be treated in corn, wheat, barley, or rye with 2,4-D ester or amine at 0.5 pound per acre (1 pint per acre of a 4 pound per gallon formulation) during the tillering stage of the crop.

	Summary of responses on the organic control of field bindweek
		Following is an edited summary of the 9 responses I have received to date on organic control of field bindweed (Convolvulus arvensis), also known as creeping jenny or small morningglory.
		Bindweed is, I think, very similar to wild buckwheat which grows here.
		I suggest deep plowing because bindweed has deep rhizomes and sends up shoots which will be severed by the horizontal slicing action of the plow.

	Bindweed
		Bindweed, a native of Eurasia, was sold as an ornamental in the U.S. in the early 1800s.
		Bindweed's leaves are arrowhead shaped and about 1/2 to 2 inches long.(6) The mature leaves at the base of the plant are the largest, while the young leaves are progressively smaller towards the end of the stem.(6)
		Bindweed gall mites cause galls to form on the leaves and stems of bindweed; the result is stunting of the plant, reduced flowering, and some reduction in the amount of bindweed.

	Field Bindweed
		Hedge bindweed (Convolvulus sepium L.) is quite similar in appearance and growth habit to field bindweed but its leaves, flowers and seeds are larger, and it has 2 large, leafy bracts (10-20 mm long) which enclose the base of the flower rather than being attached mid-way on the flower stalk.
		Wild buckwheat can be distinguished from field bindweed by its larger leaves, the thin membrane (ochrea) that encircles the stem at each node, clusters of small green flowers in the leaf axils or at the tips of branches, and dark brown to fl triangular seeds with sharp corners.
		Bindweed can also be effectively controlled after wheat harvest by spraying in late August or early September when the plants have resumed vigorous growth and started to flower.

	Field Bindweed
		Field bindweed, the morning glory-type weed' is a perennial that can be a very persistent problem in gardens, flower beds, and other parts of the yard.
		To control field bindweed in areas where it is well-established, the use of an herbicide can be more practical and usually much more effective.
		Avoid using these herbicides when the field bindweed needs water, because when plants are drought-stressed they slow down all internal activity, thus slowing transport of the systemic herbicides to the roots.

		The easiest way to tell this Bindweed apart from other white flowering Bindweeds is by the size of the flowers and its habitat: Great Bindweed (C.sylvaticus) has flowers from 5-9 cm and grows in waste places, hedges and around buildings.
		Bindweed (C.arvensis) has flowers from 1-2.5 cm (flowers may also be pink with white stripes) and grows in cultivated and waste land, along pathways and in coastal habitats.
		In spite of its beauty, Bindweed is considered a great pest by all those who cultivate food and plants, because when it occurs on cultivated land it is a plant which is very hard to control due to its very long roots.

		For the first couple of months I saw no effect, although the bindweed had sucked in several pints of weed killer, but then it started to slow down, and after a while I noticed the new growth was an unhealthy yellow colour with holes in the misshapen leaves.
		Bindweed doesn't even come close to the horror either of those two weeds inspire in my area (well, except for the naive people who think those awful things are pretty ornamentals!).
		Bindweed also doesn't do well when it is shaded so if you can shade it, it comes up really spindly.

		Meyrick states that the root of C. arvensis is a rough purgative, and to such constitutions as can bear it, will prove serviceable in jaundice, dropsy and other disorders arising from obstructions of the viscera, the best method of administering it being to bruise the roots and give their expressed juice in strong beer.
		The juice of theGreater Bindweed, taken in doses of 20 to 30 grains is also a powerful drastic purge, and country people often boil its freshly-gathered roots in ale in the same manner as the Field Bindweed.
