Every year I find myself on my hands and knees for hours pulling weeds in our 10'x10' garden. Then it rains for 3 to 5 days and I give up because the weeds are out of control and just start weeding around the plants and not doing between the rows. We like in a very wooded area so the weeds get out of control very fast. I've tried cardboard, newspaper, landscaping fabric...nothing works. The weeds grow back ON TOP of the landscaping fabric. The only thing I havent tried is mulch and I was contemplating it this year. My SO says I'm just being lazy but I dont think so (I dont see him pulling weeds ) Anyone have any advice on effective weed barriers? We refuse to use poison so please don't suggest that...although I'm sure it does wonders
