I've just spent the weekend preparing the soil for new turf which will be laid over the next few weeks. I used a cultivator and dug qutie deep and now have a soft top area of soil - ready to be raked and levelled.
The old garden used to get a lot of creeping vine which I'm pretty sure I've removed all of the roots. I don't want any old weeds coming through my new turf.
The question I have is can I treat the soil with a weedkiller to kill everything prior to putting my new turf down? I was looking at one killer but a friend mentioned that it would probably kill my turf once it was laid.
Any advice??
