  1. Launched in March but I just found it and it’s important.

  3. This was my first time trying a cover crop for weed suppression in the garden, and I think it's been a success!

    My lazy method was to let some volunteer grass grow tall here over the winter and strim it when it had green seeds, around the end of March. Then I covered it with a tarp until it was time to plant beans in mid May. This spot previously had frequent mullein, herb robert, and grasses.

  5. Sending out a message in a bottle to find any fellow #salad nerds. That container of mixed greens is mizuna and red oakleaf, filled out with some chickweed (Stellaria media) and bittercress (Cardamine hirsuta). I am treating those last two as "volunteers" rather than "weeds" since they are both so full of minerals that they get listed as medicinal. (Also, they are delicious.)

  7. Invasive plant management by residential and absentee amenity rural landowners
    "An estimated 22-45% of landowners in Australia are absentee. Our research aimed to better understand whether absentee land ownership in Australia makes a difference to how weeds are managed."
