Weeds

[vegswap]

The weeds around my raspberries, blackcurrants, gooseberries and rhubarb have got completely out of hand. Short of a flame thrower has anyone got any ideas? I don't really want to use nasty poisonous chemicals but I'm totally daunted by the amount of back breaking weeding to be done. Help

i would dig them out rather than use chemicals around my fruit bushes,
if your daunted by the idea,
just...
get someone else to do it!

Hi Vegswap
Get a few black bin liners and spread them out covering the weeds, allowing just the stems of your plants to protrude through, put some soil over the plastic to secure and if they ain't got light they wont grow, however get the worst out first.
Hope this helps???? cheers (stupo) paul
