Default What's the Best Small Weeding tool/technique?

Have you considered mulching? Lay several layers of newspaper on the
ground
(wet it with the hose to keep it from blowing as you work), then cover
with
grass clippings or straw. This is very effective, looks neat, and helps
conserve moisture in the ground. Then you will only need to weed right
next
to the plants, and as they grow and shade weed seedlings out, you should
have little or no weeding to do.

That's a great idea. I have plenty of newspaper and grass clippings.
Must I weed first?
