And dandelion. That's mostly from them being everywhere and easy to grow. And hard to do anything else with.
Humans would do anything for extra calories or nutrients once upon a time.
A plants only a weed if you decide it. If you’ve got a good lawn and almost any kind of mulch, doesn’t matter much what your neighbors doing.
The city stopped spraying for broadleaf unless the field is covered by more than 60% or something, the median beside my house is littered with them, but my front and backyard maybe gets 2 a week to pluck.
Not true for tight small city yards.
I would need a layer of mulch deeper than any of my in ground plants could handle.
I have exactly that, a 1” layer of straw mulch protected my raised garden beds. You can also use biodegradable “plastic” mulch too.
I don't have raised beds
You don’t need raised beds to mulch them?
But then the mulch won't stop the weeds unless I do it deep enough to hurt my plants. I don't understand why you are so adamant that works for you with a completely different setup is so important for me to do.
Wait how is my yard dry and dusty and also full of weeds?
