Well the very edge of grass verges go brown towards the end of winter
but very soon green back up. Wouldn't with sodium chlorate...
I had rabbits grazing the dead nettles in my gravel so today I got out
my brand new £2.95 sieve from Home base, and started shovelling the
gravel into it
One trug for anything green one for what was sieved and then just put
the gravel back
You would not *believe* how much soil I sieved out.
Probably a large bucketful for every square meter.
Rate was about a square meter an hour for the very bad bits
3 sq meters done ...15 to go...
I got about 10 kilos of compostable material as well
