Top Three Issues in Vegetable Gardens | 2. WEED CONTROL - Weed control should begin at the time of planting. Organic mulches and newspaper can help block weeds ...from germinating. Landscape fabric can also be effectively used to block weeds while allowing vegetables to grow in small openings cut into the fabric.
