  • Which weed Killer?

    My plot has pretty much neglected last year to due personal stuff getting in the way, so I now have a huge covering of weeds, grass etc in all of my beds. I have been digging and burning but not making a huge difference with all of the rain and all I'm getting is more weeds :-(

    Can anyone recommend a weed killer I can use on large areas that I will still be able to grow veg in this year?

    I also have hens and should be able to keep them off the veg garden for a while but would need to be very careful they don't come in contact etc

    I really did not want to revert to this........

    Thanks in advance, Mandy

    Can you smother the weeds with cardboard or plastic until you have the time to weed them?

      Thanks VC,

      I had covered over the winter but as the beds have Ben left for a year they are really bad. I dug out as much as I could about 5" down with roots etc then used a burner wand but no way I could plant out. I put in a few seed tatties but the weeds are winning :-(. Maybe I need to forget planting this year and clear properly for next......

        can you not find a way to put your chickens IN your veggie patch during the day for a bit? My girls devour every single bit of green they come across....weeds and weed seeds stand no chance!
