By Janine Hughes


Many new gardeners wonder on the best methods to kill herbs in their gardens. The weeds should never be bothering because there is plenty of what to use to kill weeds that attacks the gardens.

One of the cheapest and the much best method to remove the stubborn plants is through removing and pulling the plants of by hand. However, it takes a lot of time to remove the plants one by one but it is safe because harmful chemicals that would find their way up the food chain are not used. The plants are also removed from the roots; therefore, there is no likelihood that they would sprout again immediately after weeding. Using this method one can remove them just as they start growing; therefore, one does not have to wait for the herbs to mature.

The pulling off by hand of unwanted plants will only be efficient if the farm area is relatively small if you are to do it personally. But one can also employ people that would assist in the weeding. But if you still do not want to use chemicals there is the options of boiling water and pouring on the weeds. They will die and the seeds too.

Hot water burns crops and destroys the cells therefore it is important to be careful so that you do not ruin crops on farm. Water with soap is also another effective organic weed protection method; it works well during dry and hot days. Other techniques include spraying the plants using concentrated vinegar and alcohol. Again be careful with this approach because they aren't choosy they would kill both herbs and crops if you do not spray carefully.

The most efficient method for removing herbs that have not sprouted is by using the cornmeal gluten. It will prevent the plant from emerging and also fixes nitrogen in the soil. The herbicide does not also kill grass. For those who are not interested in organic ways to keep unwanted plants from encroaching the farm. Chemicals such as Ortho Weed-B- Gon and Roundup are the popular for removing stubborn plants. They can kill mature attacking plants very fast, and they keep even prevent the herbs cycle for several months.

Please consider the every benefit of the herbicide before choosing the best for your farm. Follow every instruction to the letter. Keep all herbicides away from children and pets reach.

There are other ways of killing these stubborn plants such as mulching. The whole essence is to prevent sunlight from reaching them, and therefore they die a natural death. You can always use home available tools such as grass, old newspapers, old curtains, and carpets for mulching. Ensure you spread them well on the footpaths of the farm, and you will be set to go. It is one of the most effective ways of keeping these plants away from the gardens without spending so much.

In conclusion, the ways, you will opt for in weeding; depend on factors that such as your farm size and the type of weed growing on the farm.
