Weeds aren't a disaster in the garden. In fact, they can be a gift.
In permaculture we say, "Everything is a resource!" Weeds are no different - they can provide green living mulch that shades the soil and act as nurse plants to tender young starts. They can be pulled and used as brown mulch (pull n drop/chop n drop), where they will cover and protect the soil and slowly turn back into soil themselves, increasing fertility.
Knowing our weeds - and how best to use them - helps make our gardens more resilient, and our gardening less stressful.
