National Weed Your Garden Day
One of the best gardening tips is to stay in control of your garden. Weeds grow fast, very fast and can soon become overwhelming. If you stay on top of them, it is much easier to maintain your garden. Weeding 5 or 10 minutes each day will make the job seem bearable and maybe even a little bit enjoyable and you will be in control and the weeds will not!!
Excessive and unwanted weeds will crowd out plant roots and steal the nutrients that are needed for the plants to grow nice and healthy.

Ask me how many times I've burned myself... even ended up on crutches one time after I ended up with second degree burns on my foot. I was making soup.

I too belong in the group, but haven't reached that painful of a level (and hope not too). The Microwave is my friend!!

(256,868 posts)3. I mainly stick to the microwave these days, too...
And I gave up drinking - which I liked to do while I cooked...

Now why would I want the weed out of my garden? I wish that I could grow as much weed and catnip as possible.
