Weeding Techniques

[Shades-of-Oregon]

@flowerbug thanks for the suggestion.

How about those wild blackberry canes that grow from birds droppings and pop up in the crowns of plants. So far I just clip them down a far as possible. I swear they grow a foot a day. In winters I try to dig the blackberry tap roots up hoping not to damage the surrounding garden plants . It seems like one of those necessary jobs that grows larger every year.
