Sigh.

My garden looks like a bomb went off on it.

I see these pictures of perfect weed free gardens with straight rows and cannot figure out how they do it.

We have clay like soil and it makes weeding difficult.

My tiny garden looks like a tomato plant experiment because it basically is, as I learn.

Market gardeners put a ton of effort and money into it and the ones I follow, also get $5-6 per pound for stuff that's $2-3 per pound in the stores.

Compost used as a mulch and thick enough to suppress weeds. Strings to mark rows or this thing above to mark a grid.
