Houston County, GA
I have watermelons on plastic. Should I try to control weeds with the cultivator and herbicide, then put out straw once vines start to run? Or should I just put out straw first and hope for best. I figured straw would get in the way of the cultivator. Pretty sure pigweed will come through the straw anyways.
