| Corona diamond hoe |
This bitch knows just what to do and how I like it - a real pro. Sometimes we think we've seen it all, that we know all there is to know about hoes but this just goes to show, me at least, that you can always learn more, can always be surprised by something new. My new how may just make me a better man, if not a better farmer...

| Slides right below the soil surface, you push and pull and it slices the weeds off at the root. I love this hoe |
In other news: I mulched the most heavily weed infested areas with newspaper and 4-6" of straw. Not only will it hopefully kill off the weeds but it looks good and it's nicer to kneel on and walk on. Here's some progress photos in case you are too unimaginative to visualize for yourself.

| Lay it down thick, the point is to block the light to the weeds |
 |
| Wet the newspaper so it doesn't blow away or slide around on you |
 |
| Add straw, enjoy |
