Barrier Tactics
The first line of defense against weeds is prevention. Consider laying down a layer of mulch around your plants. It serves as a physical barrier, making it tough for weeds to break through. And for an extra kick, throw some cardboard under that mulch. This is a double whammy that stifles weed growth and also decomposes into the soil, providing additional nutrients.

A household staple that you probably have in your kitchen right now can be your next big weapon against weeds. Plain white vinegar contains acetic acid, which works like magic to kill weeds. Simply spray it directly onto the weed, but make sure to avoid any nearby plants you wish to keep.
