Weed Plants Popping Up Everywhere

This is now out of control. Everywhere I look new weed plants are popping up. The more I harvest and destroy, the more they seem to grow. These pesky little plants don’t take a hint. Normally you can destroy them and they will leave you alone for a few months. Not this time. I blame it on Mr. Rain. At night he decides to visit my garden and dump his raindrop down upon my plants. The next morning when I arrive hundreds of new tiny weed plants have sprung up over night.
Warning: Weed plants are dangerous for your health. They hurt your back, cramp your legs, and add calluses to your hands. They also leave dirt under your nails, give you eye sores from looking at them, and nobody wants to help cultivate them.
Woo woo is me, I have no choice but to go and cultivate my weed plants. So it’s off to the garden with a bucket and weedier in hand to start another day of cultivation. Unfortunately, for me, I can’t add these pesky weed plants to my mulch pile. They will only sprout more plants because each one of them has seemed to have flowered over night.
Do you have a problem with weeds popping up out of nowhere? Most of the time they are easy to control in our garden, however right now it seems to be overwhelming and I am the only one it bothers.

We always put some weed killer in the hole when we plant a seed. Rarely have any weeds.

I have an all natural organic garden and hate to use weed killer. I guess you can call me over picky about the way I plant and how I treat the dirt I plant in. I would rather pull weeds than use something that will posion the earth. That is one reason we threw this guy out of there. He wanted to come in and spray the weds. The problem with this is that the spray travels and it gets on the other plants. This kills them off.

The only way I can keep a handle on this giant garden is to spend 1 hour a day pulling weeds in one area. Then the next day I move on to another area. Normally when I do this the area I have cleaned will stay weed free for around 2 months. Then one day we have wind and rain and the weeds come back again.

I am happy to say my home garden is weed free and has been for years. I just need to keep attacking the weeds in the organic garden and one day they will be gone. Oh at least I hope they will be gone like my garden at home.

Oh, yes we are constantly pulling weeds in our garden and I so hate weeding.

In my garden at home I am weed free. Have been for years. I just kept attacking the weeds here and making sure I dug out the roots. Now my garden has no weeds to pull.
In some areas of the organic garden I can weed once and then I can go 6 months without seeing another weed. I think it all depends on where it is in this garden. There are some areas that you can weed today and tomorrow they are back. Where other areas stay clean and you only have a few that pop up now and then.

Pesky weeds. Bad Mr. Rain. Maybe they both need a good scolding.

Weeds are an eternal battle for a gardener.
