My favorite way, and most successful way, to keep weeds from sprouting up
everywhere in my vegetable garden is to layer the area with thick (whole
sections) of black/white newspaper and then mulch with either grass
clippings, shredded (non-treated) hardwood mulch, or dried leaves.


Every newspaper I see nowadays has at least SOME color in
it. Do you page through and remove those pages? Or can
they safely be ignored?
