We rotavated our allotment today yes rotavated very deep and thoroughly , had some couch grass at home in borders to but never find it to be as a big a problem as everyone says , just like anything you have to keep on top of it like all weeds.
I had couch grass in a big area of the garden of the house I live in when I moved in 13 years ago, it took me 4 years to dig it out. Thankfully the soil was very light so could get rid of any bits that broke off. I now have part of it as a veg garden and the other part has got edging slabs and is gravelled with my geranium (cranesbills) collection around it looks lovely all summer. Have bought a new arbour seat to go there as I get the sun most of the day and evening.
