It's a noxious weed here! I would like to ask the opposite question: how to get rid of it without using any herbicides.

What kind of environment are you living in?

What exactly is the problem?  I have mine in pots in full sun. I water a few times a week.

Grow them from rhizomes

- in containers:

get a flat container, fill with a poor mix and burry the rhizome horizontally, it will spread in there.

- in your garden (if it isnt already full of Phalaris this will make your garden full of it):

just do the above but without trays / containers.

Growing from seed:

- in containers:

all year round, fill a flat tray or container with poor mix again, sow and water ubtil you see sprouts, give them full sun.

- in your garden:

in spring after last frost work a patch of dirt over so all weeds are removed and the ground loosened, then compact it a bit again and sow, water well until you see sprouts, rainfall should do the rest if your area isnt very dry.

So in conclusion: It shpuld work out easily, maybe sth is wrong with your seeds or your rhizome is dead ? :)
