I want to use this medium to greet all great Hivers. How has been your day so far, hope you are all doing good? I'm positive minded that it's all well and fine.
Normally, we have different ways that we can get rid of weeds from our farm land which can actually disturb the proper germination of our crop plants or also can be disturbing when we have too many of them in our environment. Having these weeds in our environment can actually leads to the weeds harboring dangerous reptiles like snakes, lizards, alligators and the likes.
The last time I got rid of the weeds around my pen, I made use of herbicide with the help of sprayer to spray the chemical on these weeds but which I later found out might be harmful to domestic animals around and even dangerous to human health. Aside that it's harmful to domestic animals and human, using too much herbicide could reduce the soil the pH.
..... My encounter with my neighbor using the method of hoeing and pulling to get rid of the weed around his house.
After weeks I made use of herbicide to get rid of the weeds surrounding my house and pen, I came across my neighbor getting rid of weeds using Rake, Hoe and Cutlass to pull out these weeds. What really amaze is that, I know how bushy this house and its surrounding was before He started weeding it through this method of pulling with Hoe and Rake.
The most amazing part is that I found it so safe to animal around and human. It's one of the best method to use but it's energy consuming. That's the reason why I understood that I found this method difficult at the same time, maybe because I'm lazy or something.
Making use of removing weeds by pulling and hoeing can as well help the soil in many ways;it helps the soil to absorb water and also allows water to enter into the soil.
