Niche Knowledge

Identify the weeds that are most persistent, prolific, or problematic in your landscape. Regional weed lists, other gardeners, agricultural offices, phone apps, and broad Internet searches can help you with weed identification. Comparisons of your weed to online photos, illustrations, and detailed plant descriptions can help narrow down a positive ID.

Improve Drainage With A Dry Creek Bed

Dry creek beds are another variation on French drains or drainage basins. They can be made by manipulating the contours of your landscape or dug in and backfilled with materials to give them more aesthetic appeal. Dry creek beds work best when they are mildly sloped so they don’t run like rivers. They also need to be compacted so they don’t turn into bogs. Finally, they eventually need to outlet to a safe location, such as to a rain garden.

Go No- Or Low- Till With Weeds

Garlic is planted in the fall under 2 to 4 inches (5 to 10 cm) of soil and roots deeper in the soil profile to start. My harvests are much larger when I cut weeds as green manure than when I uproot them.

Create Peace In The Garden

A cottage garden lends itself to letting a few weeds be part of the broader picture.
