Looking for some feedback on my front yard/weed solution.
Both my front and back yards have been absolutely ravaged by weeds this summer (Monsoon season finally produced rain for us in Phoenix). The back yard has responded well to weed pulling and burning, but the front has not (picture below is from today). I have rock on top of Casa Grande Series soil and my front yard is on a downward slope to the street.
Here is my way-too-grandiose idea to try and permanently get rid of all my weeds (at least in the front yard): I want to take all of the rock off, pull any weeds that remain, use preen all over the yard, cover the preen/yard with landscaping fabric, and then put the rock all back on top of that.
Thoughts?
