weeding | Garden of Harris

Today, I noticed that my garden was growing rampant with weeds and other invasive plants (I was expecting this to occur). Visually, it seemed like there was A LOT of unwanted shrubbery, almost as if my garden was taken over by these plants. However, upon closer inspection, it was about 1-2 very large plants encompassing each vegetable plant. No big deal. It was very easy to pull out the weeds, but it sure did take a lot of back-breaking labor! You can make your task easier if you wait until ample rain has hit your garden. This will keep the soil moist and loosen the earth so that you can pull out the weeds with ease. It rained the past few days, so it seemed like a good time to start weeding and maintaining my garden. I simply applied finger force at the base of each weed stem, and it came right out. Everything looks very clean now. Check out the pics for some before and after shots!
