Weeding is one gardening chore that can seem relentless during the growing season. In the spring and summer months, weeds grow here, there and everywhere, readily self-seeding across the garden. You might only be away for a few days for work or on vacation, but on return, you will be greeted by dandelions and docks making themselves quite at home in the backyard.
Weeding has rightly undergone something of a rethink in recent years and we, as gardeners, should take a more ethical and considered approach to this job. While we might not want weeds to dominate the yard, using weed-killer chemicals and sprays will harm your yard and the local ecosystem, and should be avoided at all costs.
