If you're short on time, weeding can be a nuisance. Check out this great tip from David on how to simplify the "upkeep" of your vegetable garden.

I tried this method last year and the weed simply grew up under the fabric. Maybe the suggestion about putting a layer of mulch over the fabric would keep that from happening? For this year, I've taken out the fabric and am just using a much, to cover the soil around the plants. We'll see how that works.
I have not put this down in my garden as it is a bit large. 1/2 acre or so. I do use it in my planting beds in the back yard and it makes life a LOT easier as far as weeding goes.
Thanks for the compliment!
