How I'm attempting to stop the spread of weeds on my pathways throughout my dry garden. Did it work?

Thank you for stopping by and welcome to my new channel where I explore my dry garden cultivars including agaves, cactus and other succulents. In today's episode in Part 2 of weed mitigation, I show how my efforts a few weeks ago have paid off with attempting to mitigate weeds (mostly on the pathways) in the backyard. Since I saw huge improvements from my first efforts, I show a bit more of the process of hoeing and raking the impacted areas. I haven't done weed mitigation before and I may need to try it once more before I can declare some kind of victory in the never-ending battle against weeds. I also take you on a garden tour to show the areas that I'm attempting to prevent substantial weed growth. I know that I can't prevent them all but we'll see how this attempt goes. I love working with these beautiful plants, I hope you enjoy the video!

Whether you're a seasoned horticulturist or an agave hobbyist like me or just a little curious about these awesome plants, I hope to be able to offer a little bit of something for everyone.
