The_King48 Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Weeds over run my backyard... I was thinking of taking a skidloader home from work and starting all over... Should I spray weed killer or something of the same before I tear up the yard or should I wait till I get it all leveled off???? I want to tear up the yard because its very unlevel and way too many weeds... What is a good weed killer also??? I have broadleafs, creeping charlie, thistles, ect....

311Hemi Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 A good weedkiller and then Harley rake it! Rent the Harley rake for the skid loader if you don't have one.I know nothing about weed killer......that was just my inital thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sakazulu Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 I did this to my back yard. Mow, Spray Round-up, let it all die, level and rake up the debris, till the soil, I did mine w/a harrow and plant a high quality grass seed blend. I bought a custom blend from a feed store that they mixed. I followed, step by step, a book by Jerry Baker about lawns. It is now a nice back yard. Get that book. It is a little intense but it worked and was cheaper than sod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
