jdmidwest Posted July 17, 2020 Posted July 17, 2020 Keeping a clean border around the beds helps too. A little roundup helps with that. I try to keep chemicals out of the beds themselves. Mulch or rock the borders. Crabgrass sends out shoots that seed and they get into the beds. "Life has become immeasurably better since I have been forced to stop taking it seriously." — Hunter S.

Yes I have been using other stuff than Roundup but not happy with it. Got another place I’m going to put a Strawberry Bed I think I will fill the Box then put Black Plastic over it for a couple days. Got Crabgrass in my Asparagus but also have other so I might just mulch it and pull. oneshot

The only place I don't have crabgrass oddly is my asparagus, maybe it doesn't like the salt.
