When I do the newspaper thing, I don't break through the barrier until
it's had a chance to smother the grass. IMHO, a season is long enough.
No need to wait a whole year. For example, the stuff that I smothered
this spring will be ready for fall plantings. The grass will be dead,
and the newspaper will have already started to break down.


This does not work with bermuda grass, only cool season grasses.
