Are there any tips for how to prevent weed growth in my garden?

1. Start by making sure your soil has a balanced PH level.
2. Pull any existing weeds on a regular basis to prevent them from spreading new seeds.
3. Apply a weed preventer such as mulch or a barrier fabric to your garden beds.
4. Plant ground covers that are dense and have spreading habits to shade out weeds.
5. Keep your garden beds well-weeded and water deeply but infrequently.
