Tagetes minuta

I have recently sown some tagetes minuta which is supposed to kill the roots of perennial weeds like ground elder and couch grass. It sounds like a miracle plant but I haven't read anything in the gardening magazines about it. Has anyone any experience or knowledge of this plant?

Wikip reveals that it is also known as Stinking Roger, and that its sap can cause skin irritation and photodermatitis so even if it works on the weeds, it's a plant to be cautious around.
