No More Weeds In Our Beds!

A huge advantage to having a container or vertical garden is the decreased need to weed it. Having your plants safe and secure off the ground is a huge advantage when fighting weeds. But what if you love having your garden in the ground? The search for an effective alternative to removing weeds by hand can be daunting.  We have a few solutions that will help you in your search.

Another alternative is the Weed Dragon. Just as the name might imply, it uses flame power instead of herbicides. The propane torch kit does not burn the weed, but the high heat destroys the cell structure of the plant to kill the weed for good. This has been a popular green gas option for over 50 years in homes and gardens. The Weed Dragon is great for more than just a weed killer, it can be used to thaw frozen pipes, melt snow and ice, start a campfire, or even light charcoal. I don't know about you, but something that not only keeps my family and pets away from herbicides, but also serves multiple purposes is a winner to me.

We get overrun by Dandelions every year. Of course, my children love them. My youngest daughter will even surprise me in the car with one, which she has to make a wish and blow of course. Dandelion seeds everywhere! For me, I don't mind them so much, but they will take over a yard or garden before you can blink an eye. The only way to stop them is by getting to the root of the plant. most tools only get the bulb, but unless you get the whole root, you are just prolonging the amount of time before they pop right back up. This Dandelion Removal Tool solves that by going deep below ground, wrapping the root up, and pulling it out. Better than that, it doesn't require you to get on your hands and knees thanks to a long handle.

You can find both of these tools, as well as other cultivators, hand tools, and more at our websites:

If you wish to try to skip these steps all together and just plant a container or vertical garden, then we have you covered for that as well. We have all sorts of ideas to get you started on a living wall or container veggie garden.

Mulch Obliged

Leaves are starting to fall and soon enough we will be outside raking them up. The question is, What are you going to do with all of those leaves? Use them! They provide a natural and perfect protection for your plant roots.

3 Ways To Use Your Fallen Leaves

1. Add them to your compost bin and mix with the other fruits, vegetables, and grass clippings you already have in there. These things will help break down the leaves quicker.
2. Rake your leaves up and then layer them over your garden or flower beds. You can even use your bagger attachment on your mower to pick up shredded leaves to use. The leaves can be whole or shredded, but do not layer more than 2-3" thick. Any thicker and you may block out important sunlight and rain needed. The leaves serve as mulch to protect the roots, helpful insects, and other things that are growing during the cold months. In the Spring, simply mix with the soil to continue using the benefits of the leaves.
3. Simply use your mower to mulch up the leaves and leave a "dusting" on your lawn. You don't want your lawn to be buried. This light layer will protect your grass roots and provide nutrients.

Do you want help gathering up all of those leaves? We may just have some things that can help over at www.lawn-gardening-tools.com. 

Save your back from the rake with our Grab X Leaf Grabber. It just grabs up the leaves instead of raking them.
