QuestionsProblem with Soil
Sean Dunne Staff asked 15 years ago

Dear Gerry,I have a vegetable patch that is one year old, at the east side of a new house. I grew some vegetables it is last year but the soil is not good and nothing has been grown in it since last last autum, its now quite weedy with the remains of last years vegetation grass etc I intend to get a couple of loads of top soil in the coming weeks and spread approx 6 inches to a foot of top soil over the area. The question is do I need to kill the weeds etc and dig the ground before I spread the top soil .Many Thanks Sean
