I got a lot of free fill when i bought my place 5 years ago, so free in fact that cartage was free.
Seems to be contaminated with some out of this world weeds. They laughed at roundup. So i covered the whole thing is 300mm of crushed concrete and compacted it. Due to my neglect of it out of frustration i now have what can only be described as weed trees. Id need a slasher to mow this, so every weekend i got get a pair of diaposable overalls and don a face mask and the poor whipper snipper is on max revs for about 2 hours and 2 full tanks. 2 weeks ago i bought 200kg of pool salt and put it on some weeds in the front yard and seems this has put the weeds in their place ie dead. I want to cover my whole block with it and perhaps just blue metal on top but this will take a LOT of salt. Ideas would be good if anyones done this, Ive never felt so defeated at something so stupid. |
