Killing grass under my apple trees
Where do you live ? We could loan you our female dog as she seems to kill
all the grass around her pretty easy & quite well !
Seriously though, let us know how the cardboard or such works out as it
sounds like a very simple, but somewhat long process.

I have a number of apple trees with grass growing under them right up to
the trunk. I want to get rid of the grass and mulch under the trees out
to the drip line.
What is a good way to do this? I'm tempted to use an herbicide (like
Roundup) but I'm not sure what that would do to the tree. I have enough
trees that I don't relish the idea of digging around under each one of
them and possibly messing up the roots. I think if I put mulch down on
top of the grass, the grass would just grow right through the mulch.
Any suggestions?
