Can chemicals be used to control weeds in the home garden?
Yes, if you’re a large commercial grower, but for the home gardener they are impractical. I feel that the hoe is still the best method of garden weed control. Watering the Garden How much water does the average garden need? We usually figure that a normal garden needs about 1″+ per week. Although rain is the best source of moisture, there usually are a few dry periods each year. This should be applied in one or two deep watering per week, if it isn’t provided by mother nature.
