Before each gardener, the question arises how to get rid of weeds. The most popular ways are weeding or pumping land. And in the first, and in the second case, the result of short-lived, plus work should be carried out regularly. There are somewhat more cunning ways to prevent grazing.1 Use Mulch
Mulching is a falling asleep of the soil of various kinds of compositions: chips, grass, sand. You can choose the option of aesthetic - multicolored wooden chips or fine pebbles. Or to stay on practical and free - to float empty places in the beds of grass or hay. If you use beveled grass, do not make a dense layer, it is necessary that each edge of dried into the sun, otherwise the coating can start rotting.
2 Make chemical fertilizers
This method is difficult to call environmentally friendly, but it is effective. It is not necessary to abuse such additives, it is necessary to make them in the ground, so as not to harm cultural plants and do not specify the fruits.
The ideal way to use this kind of fertilizer is a new site that resembles a wild field than cultivated land. It is still not bad for such a "refive" next to the trees - it cannot damage the trunk, but thickets around cleaning around.
If chemicals have conceived, read the instructions. The best time for processing - earlier windless morning. After processing, the site cannot be visited for several days, and to the end such fertilizers are decomposed for the month, so when working with bushes and beds in the garden, be careful.
3 Close empty sections
Usually for these purposes, special agrofiber is used, often it happens dark. So that the fabric does not drag on attention, it is masked by mulch from hay or sawdust.
At the required distance, holes for cultivated plants are made and nothing affects their growth. Despite the fact that you have to spend on the material, it usually grabs for several seasons, and it greatly facilitates the life of the gardener.
4 Do not use fresh fertilizers.
It would seem, how does fresh manure affect the increase in the number of weeds? Elementary - its composition. Cows and horses absorb herb, and together with leaves and seeds, which, when in the soil, give all new and new weed shoots. What to do? Give the fertilizer to overwhelm, it takes no less than six months, and even better for several years.
5 Organize drip watering
Weeds, like any plant, need moisture, sun and nutrients. If you remove one of the components, for example, moisture, then the plant will perish. The complexity lies in the fact that weeds live side by side with healthy plants, and when watering moisture gets all.
A drip system of irrigation will be solved this problem: the water will come directly to the roots of cultivated plants, and weeds without moisture will die by themselves.
6 Site a maximum of cultivated plants
To grow and develop, weed need a place. There will be no place - there will be no useless plants. Organize landings to the maximum tightly, do not leave emptiness and untreated places on the site - and the amount of weed grass will significantly decrease. True, in this case, you will have to spend much more time on your numerous beds.
7 Remove benefits
Can't prevent the uprising - head it! From weeds, too, you can also benefit, for example, some weed plants beautifully bloom, while others can be used to combat insects or even in food (for example, the omnipresent dandelion is put in the soup and make jam and wine from it). In short, think about, maybe your weeds are not so useless?
Of course, it is not about dangerous plants like Borshevik.
