Cultivating Weed Control

by Michael Smith (Veshengro)

When faced with an abundant crop of weeds in the summer garden, you need to be clever about how to stop the growth now and limit future weeds. Fiskars range of cultivators can help you to regain control of your garden with ease and comfort.

One thing to remember when it some to weeds: some weeds indeed can be a crop, as they are edible and hence, maybe, you want to reconsider removing or killing them.

Dandelion, for instance, is one of those and despite the fact that most people see it as a pest and want to get rid of it dandelion is edible and very good for us too, and there are many other weeds just like that. I must say that I get a real kick out of seeing the reaction on people's faces when they ask me what to do with dandelion in their garden and I tell then “eat them”.

However, when it comes to tackling the weeds we do not want to crop with a range of Fiskars cultivators, weeding doesn’t have to be relentless. Technology has come on leaps and bounds and using effective cultivators that really get to the root of the problem will ensure those weeds are less likely to return.
