8.       Keep Weeds Away With Newspaper

Weeds are an unwelcome presence in any garden, but instead of investing in costly weed-blocking fabric, there’s a free alternative you can try using old newspapers. Simply lay the newspaper over the areas prone to weeds and secure it in place with mulch, dirt, or grass clippings. As time passes, the newspaper will effectively smother the weeds beneath it, resulting in a weed-free garden.
