Oh and I have got WEEDS! Inspecting my weeds, what is that

if the space isn't being used for something else
weeds are a better use than bare dirt. but if you
have any extra or old seeds around for garden
veggies or other ground covers you can sprinkle
them on the weedy areas so they can get going.

as the replacement plants sprout and grow you can
gradually weed out the weeds and let the new plants
shade them.

I am trying to make that purselane, considered a weed by
those who haven't tasted it. Got to remove all the
other weeds first.

I spread purslane seeds all overt he place last fall.

i've been eating some of it at times when i
am weeding. i'm not sure i want to eat a lot of
it as it can have a high oxalate. i do like it.
i also like that you can change the flavor by when
you harvest it.

there are plenty of other weeds around here too
which i try to keep after. a few i introduced by
mistake. luckily the worms like all of them after
they bake in the sun for a bit.

How do you kill a dandelion such that you can bury
it and not have it sprout back up?
