wrote: Hello Everyone Your advice would be greatly appreciated. First off, I will admit to knowing nothing about gardening. We bought a house with a badly overgrown back garden. It measures about 30ft *X 30ft, and was a mixture of rotten sheds and weed filled dying grass. I *have cleared the sheds, and removed the old turf, which has left a hard clay base and areas full of sand. We went off on holiday, and came back to a sea of ivy and horsetail. Roundup and Weedol dont seem to be eradicating the horsetail. I want to lay new turf and get a decent garden quickly. Should I lay a weed membrane, then a layer of topsoil and then the turf on top? Or can you recommend something better. Thanks in advance Alan -- alanbrook Newsgroups are a great way to discuss topics. In this case, the top is general gardening. |
