Hi Ron,
You’re lucky, crabgrass pales = by comparison. Quackgrass is a perennial grass and just as tenacious = as crabgrass but its creeping rhizomes are so tough that they will push up = through intact asphalt. I’ve found the roots growing right through = 8” log fence posts. The rhizomes can also run up to 10’ or more = before sending up a single blade of grass.
