Really good advice if the soil is like yours - I'm literally jealous. I WISH my soil/weed combination worked like that - lol. My clay-heavy Michigan soil would laugh at that rake action and leaving the pulled weeds to "compost in place" would create a growth explosion of biblical proportions - lol. It's amazing how well weeds can grow in soil that nothing else will grow in around here. Even my stirrup rake struggles to make a difference. The struggle is real folks - lol. Keep fighting the good fight.

No seriously! Just moved into this house this winter and the lawn has more moss, weeds, and debris than grass. 😮‍💨 I really wanted give weeding my best shot, didn’t want to just cut it all and lose sight of the different plants but it’s growing… like weeds. Cuz it’s just a diverse forest of weeds. I’m surprised there’s even grass still. But I’m literally getting dressed to head out there right now. 🏃🏽‍♀️

@@briannamartinez8280 Update??? Did the rake method work for you? As far as the moss what did you do about that? Is it a permanent fix? I have a couple areas moss - I usually use hoe then put top soil on spot but seems like each year I get a bit more, dont want it to get out of control. Also mint from someone's herb garden pops up IN my grass every side of the house. Sick of hand pulling it but no other way for mint to get roots out..

Then your best course of action is layering a lot of mulch and/or garden soil and when the weed seeds germinate in that soil, it’ll come out like nothing, roots and all.

Excellent. Similar principle to using a stirrup hoe, or a dutch push pull hoe. Everyone will have to do a little extra work at times with bigger weeds, but do this type of thing every few weeks and it really makes a difference! Less time hand weeding is easier on the back!

Will work on most of the weeds, but won't on horse tail ;) Also after you do that try not to step on it as they can easily grow back. Let them dry out, the best when it's done on a dry day.

Does this method work on a gravel driveway? It’s giving me a real headache this year, I sort of let the weed thing go out of control… I’m spraying with vinegar/salt/couple of drops of dish soap mixture, browning them, and then will try this rake method… Pray for me…🤣

@ZaatarGardens 2 ай бұрын

That’s going to be tough. I remember a gardening friend of mine that had sort of the same issue would water everything with soap and water and then cover it with a black tarp and the hot sun would basically “cook” the weeds.
