eradicating celandine

United Kingdom

I am going to try killing masses of celandine in my garden with Glysophate but I need to know how long do I wait for the soil to recover.

The soil will not affect future planting. The glyphosate is absorbed by the leaves and kills the roots. Its just not advisable to grow food crops on the site for a while.

Just don't spray too heavily--the goal is to just get the leaves wet, with minimal dripping. Soil bacteria will digest a normal dose, but a heavy overspray may take up to a year to digest.
