See that little sign that says green onions? Those are not green onions. Those are weeds. Everything green in the picture is a weed, except for the red-leaf lettuce in the far background.
How am I the only one among my garden neighbors that can't seem to keep up? I try to do a little here and there (for heaven knows I don't have time to attack them all at once), but fresh ones always pop up quicker than I can pull them.
Sorry, little plants. It's going to be crowded for a while.

i actually find weeding to be meditative and i'm always coming up with symbolic parallels that make me feel like i'm accomplishing so much more than just removing unwanted plants. but practically speaking, have you considered mulching your rows with straw? and sprinkling coffee grounds down? those have been helpful for me...
