Hello everyone,<br>
Does anyone have experience pulling garlic mustard and piling it on site? I am having a large volunteer event to pull it, and am limited in how much we can cart out. I'm hoping if we pile it up it will decompose and not reroot or spread. Has anyone had a positive or negative experience if not bagging and removing?<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
Colleen<br>

Hi Colleen,<br>
It depends on whether the plants have gone to seed or not. In our experience, garlic mustard does not reroot. But if it has already developed seed pods, those may be able to continue maturing, fall and germinate. But piling early in the season should work fine.<br>
<br>
