Novice Question.
"Santos D. Santiago" wrote in message ... Hello All, I have a very novice question. I have three flower beds in my house. Right now they are in very bad shape, they don't have any flowers only weeds and grass. I want to resurrect these flower beds if you will. My question is what is the best method to getting rid of the grass/weeds and getting the beds ready for planting. I am aware that I will have to use a tiller to get the soil nice and ready but do I have to kill the grass first w/Roundup lets say? If so how long do I have to wait before I till the ground and plant? I also would like to know what is the best thing to do to prevent grass & weeds from growing there again. Should I put tons of mulch, fabric? Your help is greatly appreciated. P.S. In addition to my other suggestions, I love the hoe that looks like a stirrup and rocks back and forth with the hoeing motion, and cuts both ways. I think it is called a Stirrup Hoe, not sure. You can find one at Lowes. Wil |
