All problems in the garden can be boiled down to one cause: a gardener who is, whether he knows it yet or not, waging war against nature. All who understand nature refuse to fight her. Wisdom has, after all, always called her "she".
A war against nature is a fool's errand. Nature, like wood, punishes those who move against the grain. Nature never loses a battle; those who fight her inflict all their own wounds. Better to call it quits and take a step back to assess the situation.
On the other hand, those who take up nature as an ally find that she shoulders most of the work.
