Default Dandelions

Invest 30 dollars on a tool called The Weed Popper. It requires virtually no
effort and is extremely effective on removal of perennial weeds with tap roots.
The best time to do it is a day or so after a nice soaking rain.

OR: Screw the neighbors. Personally, I love the dandelion flower and do
nothing to eradicate them. I eat the greens. I see nothing wrong with them.

Soon spring will be here, as will my yellow sea of dandelions. To be honest,
I really haven't tried very hard to get rid of them. I live next to a field
that is full of wildflowers (which I quite enjoy), and I had always assumed
that any attempt I made to rid my lawn of weeds would be nullified by seeds
from the field next door ending up on my lawn.However, in an attempt to be
neighbourly, I thought I'd try this year to at least get a start on
controlling the dandelions. I really do not want to use chemical
fertilizers, so I am looking for an organic solution. Any suggestions would
be appreciated.

Thanks
