Well, you pretty much ruled out any possible solution, so good luck with that hoe! Takes several years of keeping them black before that massive root mass gives up, assuming these are Canadian thistles?

Vinager seems far more expensive than Stinger or 24D, as does salt? One changes the ph of your soil, the other poisons it far more than any herbicide, so might want to rethink your views of farming some also.
