It's about 220' x 100' and has a bunch of trees and weeds and very little grass. The previous owner never racked out there so there are years of pine needles and leaves piled up. It will take all summer just to clean it up to put seed down, so I think I'm going to have to rent a tractor and use a heavy duty rake and then grade the dirt and put some seed down.

Does anyone know of a great weed killer?
The pine needles have changed the pH balance of your soil, I'd probably add some fresh soil and till it in to ensure the best conditions for your new grass.
