I don’t plant anything that doesn’t produce food.
Weeds are the bane of my existence. A couple days of fog and my back field goes from sand to 3-4ft weeds over night.
I gave up on my riding mower and recently purchased a DR field mower and trimmer (giant weed whacker) to tow behind a quad. Got em used for a smokin deal. worth every penny.
All out veggies we plant in raised beds to keep the moles, voles, and gophers from eating everything. The orchard area with all the fruit trees we keep covered with “forest floor” to help control the weeds.
I do spray our gravel driveway with weed killer if it gets outta hand but usually a few passes with the landscape rake does a good enough job. If I do spray I try to keep it away from all the food.
