Looking for some advice re: grass.
Have a garden in our rented flat. Probably 8x5m or so (at the most). It's a weed-bed at the moment. Tried to get grass to grow late last spring (when we moved in). Some took, some didn't. Weeds have won. The dirt/topsoil itself isn't great overall.
Thinking of turfing it so we can get some enjoyment out of it asap. Also, we're in a position where we may move at the beginning of next autumn, so I don't want to be too precious about it. Just get some summer enjoyment.
So - should I just spend the next few days de-weeding it, get a few bags of top soil to try to add some more dirt/level it out, and then add turf?
Sod doesn't look super expensive, and I'm happy to do the work.
