Last spring I tried making this little patch of grass outside our bulding ready for planting, but didn't quite succeed. I now thought of digging up some of the dirt, place cardboard and then put new dirt on top. I think that might prevent most weed from regrowing. What do you think? 🌻

I loved the Ruth Stout way but don’t have the energy to do that again. Hauling and throwing that hay around. The last gardening I did was in raised boxes, square foot gardening. I still used hay around my plants in places though. The cardboard sounds good if the weeds don’t get blown on top of the soil on top of the cardboard. Those seeds from those weeds in my yard still got on top of the soil when I tried using plastic bags underneath to stop them. Let me know how that goes.
