Killing millet

Grew some summer cover in failed rape ground, and it did jolly well. Bit too well possibly.

Anyhow, topped it, 2x cultivation passes and the buckwheat, phacelia, clover, mustard etc are long gone but the japanese(?) Millet, has gone bananas.

What does it need? 4lts gly plus wetter?

Thanks!

a LOT less than 4l of glypho will take out millet . . .

it is commonly grown here as a summer cover crop to provide ground cover & residue ( thus building up soil moisture ) for following dryland crops & terminated with a glypho application
