the guy on the plot next to me is to fond of it and has put it on the dividing path between our plots.No need for that whatsoever.Grrrrrrrrrrrr.
When the EU decides to ban Glyphosate will we still be able to use any existing stocks of weed killer that we have in our allotment sheds with this banned substance?, I would not like to break any EU regs and would feel really guilty about doing so being a citizen of Europe ;)
the most important is weed a portion of the garden every day 1/7 of the plot a day or more without fail.
I am glad when they ban it. Since without it the the weak and uncommitted gardeners with be removed from the allotments sites. Then only those with true garden ethic will be left leaving more plots for those with real commitment to good gardening. Digging is a wasteful way killing weeds. the hoe,the scythe, machete,weed cloth,solarization and Hort vinegar is the key to killing unwanted weeds.Now gardeners will have to do the work instead poisoning the ground. The secret to keeping weeds in check is hoe often, don't let them get out of hand,the smaller they are easier they are to kill and the most important is weed a portion of the garden every day 1/7 of the plot a day or more without fail.If the ground is not in use cover it with weed cloth or a heavy tarp. why weed when you don't have to.
