Last year I had my yard prepped for grass with a plan to hydroseed in the fall. Unfortunately, my final grade certificate was rejected and it snowed before I could get it fixed and reinspected. The grading is now fixed and I am patiently waiting for the grading inspector to return. The problem is that my beautiful black dirt is now starting to green up all on its own. It isn't full blown weed city yet but there pretty liberally covered in small 2-3" weeds.
Any advice on my next step? I will need to rake before hydroseeding but I assume removing the weeds is my first step. Should I go nuclear with a layer of round-up to kill everything then hydroseed over their corpses or rent a rototiller and just break everything up before seeding?
Thanks
