Forget the rules: "received wisdom" about gardening is surprisingly inaccurate. understand better what is going on in the soil and with your plants, in your own garden and climate, and work out your own methods instead.
Respect and encourage life as much as you can, chiefly by spreading good compost or manure.
There is no need to dig in compost and manure - just spread it on top and let works take it in. Digging can harm soil structure, and is not helpful to plants.
You can reduce weeding to a little hand-weeding or hoeing every ten days.
