1. Weeds - know your enemy

Some weeds re-grow from pieces of root; others grow from seeds which may be in the soil or brought on the wind or by birds. So that old saying about one year's seeding meaning seven years' weeding is no doubt right.


There are lots of ways of dealing with weeds, but there's always a place in every garden shed for a good sharp hoe - keep it sharp with a file.
