A method for those who are tired of constantly fighting weeds, but do not want to use aggressive chemicals.
Some summer residents cannot come to their plot every day. Sometimes several weeks pass between visits to the garden.
During this time, the plantings may be "choked out" by grass. Especially if it has been raining for several days.
That is why some summer residents prefer to do a quality job once rather than repeat the same job every two weeks.
Mulch will solve the weed problem for the entire season. You can stock up on it yourself or buy it.
Experienced gardeners scatter mulch where weeds are not needed at all. So, first they weed the beds and paths, and then cover them with any material. For example, they use the bark of coniferous trees.
In such conditions, weeds will not have the slightest chance. In addition, the mulch will retain moisture longer, and you will not have to water the plantings every day in the heat.
