12/10/10 A Return to Mead Gardens
I'm getting the upper hand on the Cesar Weeds here. They can't grow back as fast as I can pull them out. I got 100 of them today, along with 32 baby Chinese Tallow Trees and 2 baby African Ear Trees. In the above picture you see a thick mat of Cesar Weed and in the bottom picture they are gone, never to return.
A recent frost has burned their leaves along with the invasive Elephant Ear plants you see in the back ground.
My hands and legs are getting stronger. Basically I do a low squat when pulling out a plant. I keep my back straight and lift with my thigh muscles.
