In this video, I show you how I weed a severely overgrown bed using the no till style of weeding. Essentially, leaving the soil untouched and unscathed, preserving that soil profile like any good permaculture farmer would!
The method relies heavily on mulching layers upon layers of organic matter through the season(s) to ensure that those weeds simply don’t come back!

I've heard it called the chop and drop method.
Which is true?
Plants have a symbiotic relationship. (Pulling weeds hurts surrounding plants because you break the relationship)
OR
All plants are competitive and are fighting over the same available nutrients?
No weed tea?
Always great!
Good stuff
Welcome to the first video in the No-Till series! I am creating a whole series of instructional vids based around no till and no dig farming. I'll put them all in a playlist and add to them as new ones come out! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLiie7K8ZgA_JWZPCTrwsl4PWKJpEapVdF
The ultimate weed control…mulch bed with 4 inches of dry mortar mix, water …
What’s your suggestion for my plot I use for corn? It gets overrun with weeds from October through April. I usually have to rototill to get the weeds out.
Really enjoying these videos. Just found your channel. Getting back into gardening again since the pandemic.
This is a perfect video. Exactly what I was looking for, namely 1) How to handle weeds in an established no till bed & 2) Can you use the clippings as mulch (Yes!). As a bonus, entertaining, approachable, a beautiful garden and a great dog. 10/10!
