Slow connection? Watch in lower quality
With an academic background in biology, environmental forestry and eco-physiology, Dr Paul Beckett shares his expertise in Japanese Knotweed - its life-cycle, different methods of managing it, plus the legalities of it being a `controlled waste`. In collaboration with Professor Anthony Moore of the University of Sussex and Julia Shearman, a PhD student funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Science Research Council, he is looking at new ways to inhibit the rapid growth of this invasive plant.

+PlanetRockJesus When her time comes, they won't know whether to call the local undertaker, or the local junkyard !
Nasty stuff, I once discovered a whole load of household waste and garden rubbish dumped at a friend's wood. In all this was some of this Japanese Knotweed. I know what a problem it is from my days on the railway, it'd even try and undermine tracks, grow up through seemingly impermeable tarmac, etc ! The only thing I could think to do was to burn it. Completely. Thankfully, touch wood, thus far, no sign of any growth. Just as well as the immediate area contains SSSIs.
