Hi tref_30,

I can definitely understand your plight. That sounds like you have
quite a task ahead of you. I would greatly suggest Weed B Gone by
Ortho. It works great and it is pet safe.

Hi guys,

I have recently moved into a house with quite a large garden containing
what can only be described as large weeds and nettles. As well as this
there was also a strange sort of grass that was almost hay like which
came out of the ground with relative ease. There was also clumps of
grass that when pulled came out with lots of roots and soil.
As you can probably tell from my descriptions above I'm not a gardener,
and so the next step I took may have been the wrong one. I pulled as any
of the weeds out by hand or digging if they were stiff. Most of them
came out roots and all but some snapped, I also mowed the rest.
Having read a few threads on here it seems the best thing to have done
wou7ld have been to spray some sort of killer whilst they were long.
Obviously this option is no longer so I was wondering if there was
anything else I could do. I was thinking of digging it all up and
pulling out as many weed as poss.
My long term plan is to have one half of the garden turfed and the other
half as an allotment.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Many Thanks
