I have just purchased some extra garden space around my house. Unfortunately
the weeds (mostly neetles) are extensive. I can't work the land all at the
same time so have broken it up into sections. I have started to clear the
neetles and propose coveing in with black plastic. My husband thinks this will
kill all the plants if we leave it until next spring. I am not convinced and
think we should put some weed killer down first. What do you all think?
