if i want to kill some grass. can i put dirt and mulch on top of it?
will this kill it off in a few days or will the grass grow through it?
thanks


I usually put down a 5 or 6 sheet layer of newspaper down, then put
mulch on top of it (5-6 inches) and pull by hand anything that manages
to get through. Has worked extremely well for me so far. The down side
is that you have to wait a while for the method to work. Generally, I
get this done over summer, and it is ready to plant by next spring.
