Digging |
|

|
Perennial weeds are best dug up, as they
are difficult to control by other methods.
Perennial weeds tend to spread by their
creeping stems or roots and fragments of
root. So make sure you dig up all roots,
leave one little slice of root and your
weed will be back.
|
| Hoeing
& hand weeding |
 |
Regular hoeing and hand weeding can control
most weeds. Hoeing is a very effective method
of dealing with annual weeds. You should
hoe as soon as you see the weeds surfacing
above the soil. Push your hoe just below
the soil level to sever the weeds. Try to
hoe when the ground is dry so weed seeds
if brought to the surface wont germinate.
|
| Mulching
|
|
Mulching can suppress annual weeds
and conserves soil moisture. The
perennial weeds will still come
through the mulch, so need to be
dug out by the roots. You can use
well rotted compost , grass cuttings
as long as the lawn they came from
is weed free. Also use de-composed
wood chippings and coco shells.
|
|
Ground
cover |
|
Planting ground covering plants
is one way of cutting down the amount
of weeding. But before planting,
all perennial weeds need to be removed.
Remember having ground cover doesn't
mean you will always have a weed
free area, but it will be easier
to maintain.
