Just out of curiosity, you're not planning on growing food crops in this new
bed, are you?

I really try not to use chemicals but I used Round Up on a 20 by 40
foot bed to have done by the 4th of July (per wife)... It's been down
for 5 days and the grass looks "light" green, not brown. May I still
lay 6 in. of compost/topsoil to start my bed tomorrow? The last
thing I'd want is grass growing thru.

P.S. No rain, mid 70's days, low 60's nights

Thanks!

P.P.S. Most times I just dig or lay newspaper
