No chance to get there today but...

This may prove to be the way to go for much of the plot:

In essence, wait for weeds to start growing, apply RoundUp (which prevents the production of some key amino acids in the plants, deactivated in the soil) then rotavate. Given that the lower half of the plot is somewhat weedy, may be much more productive than picking all the little blighters out by hand...
