Lawn in My Garden Spot

Question

The spot where I want to plant my garden is currently covered in lawn. Do I need to dig out all of the lawn and dispose of the sod or can I till it into the soil as I prep the site?

Answer 1

You do not need to remove the soil. This article has direction on how to do this: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/plant-problems/weeds/how-to-kill-grass-naturally-kill-unwanted-grass-in-your-yard.htm You can also choose to go ahead and till it into your soil. Any large pieces of unearthed sod can then be easily removed and tossed.
