Question:
How do I control chamber bitter?
​
Answer:
Chamber bitter is an aggressive weed. University of Memphis Director of Landscape Joellen Dimond says she pulls it as soon as she sees it in her beds. UT Extension Agent Chris Cooper says mulching is important. Chamber bitter requires sunlight to germinate, and mulch will block that. Chris also lists some pre-emergent herbicides that will control chamber bitter.
