Garlic first timer - advice about weeds!

I actually need advice about everything, but let's start with weeds! We just bought a house and I inherited a set of raised beds. They were used to grow tomatoes at one time, but it has obviously been years since the previous owners did anything back there and the beds are completely overgrown with weeds, ivy, you name it. Anyway, I cleaned out the weeds and such as best I could yesterday, but I'm afraid that many of the ivies that send out runners are still lurking below the surface.


I'm planning to use these beds for my garlic planting so I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to ensure that the vines won't encroach. Any other soil prep ideas and general advice would be appreciated as well!
