Weeds, Kill Compost Cardboard Newspaper

Weeds in beds can be killed by removing the tops one last time and then covering the problem area with 1/2" of compost followed by about 5 layers of newspaper or 1 layer of cardboard. Wet it all down and cover the paper with 2-4" of shredded native mulch. Spot spray any weeds that manage to come through with the vinegar herbicide.
