I was growing large scale - close to 200 tomato plants. I planted the
red clover too late to be really effective but it was awfully cute
coming up en masse.

Now that I'm small scale again, I still plant with red clover, but
more because I want the red clover. I use it to control hot flashes
and night sweats, in a brandy tincture.

I imagine you could buy it in a health food type store, but I harvest
the blossoms of red clover (Trifolium pratense) that grows in my yard
(I sowed the seed). Fill up a pint or quart jar with blossoms, cover
with brandy so the brandy covers the flowers by and inch or so, cover
and shake up every day for 6 weeks and viola, you have a red clover
tincture. I take about 10 drops twice a day and it works for me. I
sure know when I've skipped a couple of days.

trying to kill

This is my first time on this forum, i love gardening and have not done
so
outside uk but i suggest you find a positive in your situation, focus
on what is
growing that you are having success with, if you are doing
really well with
vegies or have huge sunflowers why not grow more of the
same, give the weeds a
bit of competition.  Weeds can only spread where
they have the space to do so.
After it has rained the weeds can usually
be lifted out more easily.
