I tried to start a no-till garden using mulch. But had many pitfalls. The end of last year, I began wondering if we can simply come up with a way to plant without tilling the soil, but somehow, keep the weeds down. Thank You for your wisdom. I live in Menifee County, Ky. You have given me hope!

I lived a year with the Navajo in Dilcon Az. Some of them practiced this method. There were differing areas of success. They could not believe when I carried out my dirty dishwater to water plants and flowers. Some underground pests ate my squash and we actually watched as something pulled a squash down and ate it leaving only the whole the plant was growing out of. The plant was about 3 feet in diameter and we had 10 of them. They all disappeared in one afternoon.It was discouraging. Our neighbors had 2 plants of corn in a 40 acre field.
