I have this new garden that was left alone for 2-3 years and now i want to plant flowers and herbs but i am worried that all that weed is going to suffocate whatever i plant there no matter how much i clean it. Do i need new topsoil? i dont want to use weedkillers (chemicals) Any ideas are appreciated.
Any tips on cleaning an overgrown garden?
As the plan goes. Till the soil, add leaves and kitchen waste, till every week for one season. Add lime in the spring and till again. After the last Frost seed and water and enjoy.

Reply:Get together with your friends and family one weekend and have a jolly weed free party, they can all help with the clearing and you can supply the refreshments. Then you can decide if you need new topsoil after they have been and gone. Many hands make light work - so it is said.
