All summer residents are united by one problem, and it is nothing other than weeds that have taken over the area.

Not even a couple of days pass after you remove them from the area, and they climb again, which is why you have to stand over the beds all season, bent over in three deaths.

Fortunately, there are a number of ways you can slow down the growth of weeds.

Perhaps the most accessible method of control is mowing with a hoe, which, among other things, is also quite effective.

Please note: Mowing will only remove the top portion of the weed, leaving its roots in the soil.

Another step you can take is mulching the area. However, there are some nuances here: the mulch layer in this case should be from 5 to 10 cm.

Finally, the most effective method is to dig up the area with a pitchfork - this way you can not only remove unwanted vegetation along with the roots, but also dig up the area.

What is noteworthy is that, according to experienced gardeners, digging allows you to get rid of even perennial weeds.
