I suppose laying strips of heavy plastic to control the weeds between rows ain’t doable?


I buy a woven plastic fabric, that is 3 foot wide, and lay it between my bean rows after I till them for the last time. It works very well in keeping weeds down, and allowing the water to still soak in. I've also used it on my tomatoes, and a few other things. Most stores sell it, although the type they sell will usually only last for a year or two at the most. I buy mine in 300 foot rolls from a farm supply store, and it will last for years.
