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.

Plant strawberries by digging a V-shaped hole about 8 inches deep.  Spread the roots out, place the roots against the side of the hole, then push soil against the roots.  As the plant sends out runner, trim all but the best six runners for an abundant crop.

Prune raspberries in the spring of their second year to 3 1/2 feet.  This will force the side branches to grow providing fruit later in the summer.
