Year 3. Time to start weeding.
I will leave Clearweed as ground cover, Burnweed and Virginia Stickseed for now. Mothewort, Creeping Charlie, and Garlic Mustard are still a problem. This year, crabgrass started showing up, so I’ll work that down and out of the seed bed as well. I hope.
*Later decision…wait until Spring as much as possible. Some Native seeds came up within the Crabgrass. Pulling or spraying will damage them.
Later in July…
I am finding it difficult to identify Native grasses with all that came up after our heavy rainy period. Scheduling herbicide for early spring.
