Weeds > Advice please
I am having terrible trouble with nettles under some fruit trees. No matter how much I weed them up, mow them, spray them they just keep coming back! Is there a sure fire way to get rid of them or am I stuck with them for life! My husband says that nettles are a sign of good soil but I always thought they were a sign of poor soil - who is right?
The presence of nettles is an indicator of good soil. They will only grow where there is plenty of phosphorous and nitrogen available along with good aeration.
