One way to get rid of lingering weeds in a newly prepared garden is to "solarize" them. Cover the area with clear plastic and let the sun do the work. This works best in hot climates.

Prevent the germination of weeds in your lawn or garden by using corn gluten. This also acts as a fertilizer. Will not kill the existing weeds or other already established plants.

When planning a vegetable garden, know what varieties will grow in your climate, know the frost dates, plant cool weather plants either early or late, know each vegetable's time to maturity, start successive plantings in a nursery to save garden space.

With a vegetable garden planting, you can grow more plants in a given area by interplanting.  Planting fast and slow growing plants, along with large and small plants in the same area gives you a bigger harvest.
