Title: Found it!! (Couch grass and marigolds)
Post by: fosteri on February 01, 2005, 08:34:12
Found out about the marigolds on the compost heap!! Apparently if you chuck Tagetes Minuta (Marigolds) seeds on the heap that contains couch grass  their roots contain a  natural herbicide and not only do they kill the couch, but are also good at killing other bugs and pests too.....
