The newspaper will prevent any grass and weed seeds from germinating, but unlike fabric, it will decompose after about 18 months. By that time, any grass and weed seeds that were present in the soil on planting will be dead. It’s green, it’s cheaper than fabric, and when you decide to remove or redesign the bed later on, you will not have the headache you would with fabric.

Cucumbers grow on vines, so if you grow them on the ground, they can take up a lot of space. Don't let that stop you from trying them, though. Instead, grow them on a trellis. As the plants start to get going, use string or twist ties to tie the plants to the trellis. ~Stacy Tornio, Author of Project Garden

Drill holes in your fence and insert marbles. great idea.

river rocks in a box + garden hose = clean feet what a great garden idea! Placed in the sun will heat the stones as well.

When nasty weeds pop up, don't reach for the weed killer. Douse them with vinegar, lemon juice or boiling water instead. The weeds will likely shrivel in a day or so. Resilient ones rarely withstand a second treatment.
