I will have to do more weeding this year because I am not using hay to mulch. I am trying to get rid of the pill bugs that wreak havoc on my tender seedlings and my berries. They like decaying vegetation, and I tend to find them on the underside of the hay. My idea is to deprive them of their food source and their living space. So, I will need to stay on top of the weeds before they take over. I have high hopes that my three winter squash plants will help cover the entire plot, giving the weeds no chance. Fingers crossed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"695\" height=\"495\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Plot-06_16_2021-1.jpg?resize=695%2C495&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2951\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Plot-06_16_2021-1.jpg?resize=1024%2C729&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Plot-06_16_2021-1.jpg?resize=300%2C213&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Plot-06_16_2021-1.jpg?resize=768%2C547&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Plot-06_16_2021-1.jpg?resize=1536%2C1093&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Plot-06_16_2021-1.jpg?resize=1100%2C783&amp;ssl=1 1100w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Plot-06_16_2021-1.jpg?w=1810&amp;ssl=1 1810w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ninebyeighteen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Plot-06_16_2021-1.jpg?w=1390&amp;ssl=1 1390w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 695px) 100vw, 695px\" \/><figcaption><em>Before<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I spent an hour and a half in the garden weeding and harvesting peas and lettuce.
