I never spray any herbicide and have very few weeds in crops, corn especically is easy to keep weed free the first thing is to get the soil balanced.Weeds are mostly the result of poor nutrient/mineral balance.Before I plant I like to disk at least twice about a week apart then I plant immediatley after disking the 2nd time.First cultivation I turn the disk hillers to throw the dirt away from the plants so I can get very close, 2nd cultivation when the plants are about 5 or 6 inches tall I turn the disk hillers in to throw dirt between the standing plants and this covers up most of the weeds plus hills the corn up.Its more labor instensive than chemicals and one person wouldn't be able to grow hundreds of acres by themselves and that'd be a good thing as farms have gotten way too large in a lot of places.If we quit burning up corn and selling it to feed Chinese slave labor we'd need to grow far less of it anyway.
