What was here was overgrown junipers, kinnikinnik, grass and weeds.
We hand pulled all the jumipers and dug the stumps out, killed the
grass with numerous applications of round up.

I really wanted to bobcat all the old crap out but that idea was
vetoed. So now we have a lot of dead rootmass from the grass. It's
good for stabilization on the slopes. As we gradually plant, we
amend each large hole very well. There are a good number of worms
living here anyway.

The real question is, is there a recommended top dressing or product
that would help the root mass break down faster? As we fill in the
uneven spots, we are bringing in top quality bedding mix too.

Weeds don't grow under juniper, and my isn't that a different tonic
called 'Gin' (from juniper). my dear, you may count those roots
pesistant, at least moreso then ur average rooties, nice wall

weeds may not gorw under them but the grass sure grew THROUGH it.
