It rained and rained and rained for weeks here in my area. When it wasn't raining, I wasn't home. So we went a few weeks where we couldn't pull weeds. When I finally got around to pulling weeds out my garden, they were as tall as the vegetable plants.
Good post.
At least you got to pull the weeds.my back still isn't strong enough to do so, so I've got to live with them. They are everywhere - I'm a bit annoyed by the fact that the garden is so messy because of them, but there's little I can do about. I guess I'll have to learn to live with weeds that are taller than my plants.
But then again: a weed is just a useful plant which virtues haven't been discovered yet.
A lot of them are edible or can be useful to fertilize plants or fight pests and diseases - I just have to learn more about them. Who knows I'll start appreciating them one day :0)
