[QUOTE="WestTn Huntin man, post: 2339169, member: 3620"] It won't be hard to get rid of weeds in a small 10X20. You are going to need to till the ground several times.The ground will be pretty hard in most new gardens. The 1st time you run the tiller don't try to go too deep.Just 2 or 3 inches will be enough to dig up the weeds.I usally like to let them lay for a day. Then when I rake them out the top soil will fall off the roots easier. Most people don't realize there are 1,000's of weed seeds in the 1st 6 to 10 inches of ground.With a new garden if you have the time till then wait a week or 2 for the weeds to sprout then till again and wait a week or 2.If you can do this it will save alot of time weeding this summer. Burning the ground 1st will help if it is possible where you live.Be sure to get a burn permit.Have a water hose handy,and watch the wind !!! [/QUOTE]
