Weed woes & solutions

How to tackle a garden plot that’s overrun with weeds in a way that works with nature!

N.B. Before strimming a wild and overgrown area check for wildlife first, such as hedgehogs.

Also, it’s better to strim before everything has set seed! I left it a bit late so I cut everything in half to drop it to the ground so the seeds couldn’t fly around too much!

Cardboard is also a great mulch instead of plastic for a short amount of time, but do make sure you don’t use Amazon boxes as they have been known to spray them with toxic substances to keep rodents away – you definitely don’t want that in your soil!
