I have a raised bed filled with something close to Mel mix.  I don't
tend to disturb it much any more and my compost is so well cooked
that I don't have alot of weeds.  Most of the weeds are the occassional
piece of grass seed, so the occassional blade of green grass is pulled.
If there is a type of lettuce or related in mesculin mix that looks similar
to grass, I have been pulling it.  If there is a weed the looks closely
similar to the mesculin mix, then I have been eating it.  

Also since I let my lettuce bed warm up a bit before planting lettuce
or mesculin mix, any weeds (I hope) would have allready sprouted
and been pulled.
