Beating the cash crunch Hoe best for weed control in gardens Most home gardeners would probably agree that weeding the garden is an onerous chore, but before you substitute a £ilSfilical sprayer for your garden hoe, be aware that the use of herbicides in the garden is likely ' to cause more problems than it solves. “The use of chemicals to control weeds on such a small scale just isn’t practical,” says Ray McNeilan, Oregon State University Extension home gardening agent. The problem is that most home gardens have at least a dozen or so vegetable varieties, few of which tolerate the same weed control spray. Nor is there any one weed spray for all the weeds that compete with vegetables. Weeds are best controllable by shallow and frequent cultivation, ideally with a hoe. It may be hard physical work, but it is more economical and e ffic ie n t th a n m o d e rn herbicides. Also avoid the use of fertilizers containing weed killers in the garden. M ulches such as lawn clippings, black plastic, seed free hay or straw, or old newspapers spread in layers between the rows may also hold down weeds as well as conserve m o is tu re , a c c o rd in g to McNeilan.
