Eileen i'm also curious as to how big your garden is. You say you have
an organic garden which means that you have to pull those weeds out by
hand and/or dig them up. The thing is as my garden isn't massive, 66sqm
soil/soon to be grass area, i would have thought that digging a hole for
every weed would make my garden look real patchy.

Pulling up most weeds doesn't leave any obvious sign. Even when you have
to dig up a bit, you re-smooth the soil. Certainly looks better than
patches of dead weeds from weedkiller!

Unless you're a fan of those gardens where the flower beds are expanses
of soil with the odd flower dotted around (or even planted in tidy
straight lines) then the plants you are keeping will be so thick that
you won't notice that any weeds have been pulled out! And you certainly
won't want to risk weedkiller near your precious plants.
