When tackling weed-control issues, you may be overwhelmed by the extensive variety of solutions available. A few examples include mulch as a natural option and black plastic sheets as a more synthetic choice. But what is the optimal weed-resistant solution for your garden?

If you are looking for a solution to your garden woes, there is one factor to consider – your budget. If money is a bit tight, then mulch might be the ideal option for you. A naturally-occurring material composed of leaves, bark and sometimes compost, mulch can help to keep weeds away while also providing vital nutrients to your plants. It could be the perfect addition to your garden.

If you don’t mind investing a more substantial amount, then black plastic may be your best option. Although aesthetically, it may not hold a candle to mulch, it will last longer and is a sure-fire way to stay ahead of pesky weeds. It should go without saying, but proper disposal of black plastic is necessary for safeguarding the environment.

Planting a weed barrier before the weeds have had a chance to spread can help ward off troublesome vegetation and make gardening much easier. Delaying this process may result in more difficult to remove weeds, so be sure to take the preventative step of laying down your chosen barrier soon.
