product placement time

The patch is chemical free. It does not make sense to use any type of manufactured chemical around food, let alone in the soil where it does untold and unseen damage.

The issue for me is that the patch is surrounded by kykuyu grass which has long runners that are determined to invade the friable soil in the patch. In addition to the chickweed and cobbler's weed that is already in the patch, constant weeding is required.

I hate weeding. So I looked for an alternative to back-breaking work.

Beat-a-weed and beat-a-bug are the way to go!

The Beat-a-weed works wonders and it keeps many of the 'pests' of my previous post out of the patch as well. Based on salt and vinegar, it suffocates the weeds and makes it easier to rake them all out.

Love it.
