We are entirely changing how we garden. Most will be covered in landscape fabric.
Can't find people to work, so going no help route. Tried this last year, worked great.
I have seed ordered to plant flowers & other things for bees & good bugs. I have always had some things, but a lot are getting over run by grass.
# 1 Fabric laid for beans.
# 2 Beans growing, no weeds.
# 3 Patch for watermelons with beets. Weeded the beets twice. Watermelons over run the beets, but worked well. Large crop of melons.
# 4 Tomatoes on the left, beans on the right. Very few weeds to pull.
# 5 Inside of our high tunnels. Have used fabric for a few years.
I wonder who this "Admin" is. I have never seen an admin on this site. Is it a computer generated person asking this question?
I would imagine it's my friend Melody.
She has been "Admin" since this site was started,
I think.
Age is really catching up with me, physically. Going on 71 and a lot of the "Get up and Go" --"Got up and Went." This new year I am taking a more laid-back approach toward gardening then I ever have before. I love my flowers, but I can no longer put as much effort into my garden beds as I used to. My back and knees have been telling me that for a few years now. This past Fall, I actually removed some plants that just weren't worth the effort to maintain. I still have my favorite tried and true perennials (both flowers and shrubs) as the foundations for my beds, so for this coming gardening season I am just going to buy annuals to use as fillers here and there. Hanging pots work wonders too! Happy Gardening!
Resolving to try and focus on/enjoy the beauty and growth and not fret so much about weeds. Here in CA, weeds are currently a sign of water! No weeds - drought!
