Show us a pic of your garden. How big is big?
I started a garden once. I made it too big. I could not keep up with the weeds. Plus I only tilled it to break ground. I guess you are supposed to kill off the existing vegetation before tilling it under.
not necessarily. you just have to keep a light tilling gowing as they re-emerge until they stop when the summer's heat kicks in.
and there's better alternatives to weed tilling or manual picking:

a flamethrower for weeds. how cool is that? i've wanted one for years, but i just can't justify it for my tiny garden and a little kid around.
