How to get rid of weeds for good
Herbicides have recently been frequently used to control weeds. This method is good for large weed areas. Herbicides are chemicals that kill plants completely. They can kill all plants, but they can only act on some specific species.
Systemic herbicides upon contact with it spread through the organs of the plant and kill it completely. Contact preparations destroy only the part of the plant that they get on.
The advantages of herbicides are as follows:
- You can kill weeds over a large area.
- The preparations destroy even the most resistant plants.
- The method is very time consuming and effortless.
- Chemicals are completely removed from the soil in 2 weeks.
At the same time, the use of chemicals is not without its disadvantages:
- Care must be taken when handling these drugs.
- Herbicides do not kill plant seeds.
- It is necessary to use chemical protection when treating the site, as chemicals are dangerous to humans.
Another method of weed control is mulching. In this case, the soil is covered with some material through which no light penetrates. As a result, photosynthesis does not take place and plants do not develop. Mulching can completely destroy the entire plant. To cover the soil, use a film, roofing material, agrofibre or any other material that does not transmit light rays. Instead of artificial material, organic matter can also be used - foliage, dry grass or sawdust, laid in a layer of more than 10 cm.
The main disadvantage of this method is the need for a large amount of time. The soil area should be covered in the spring and covered for the whole year. This is the only way to get rid of weeds completely.
In some cases, holes are made in the film for planting garden plants. Then only weeds die out, and useful plants develop.
