This is the day of the TerraClean application for the outdoor site. The same process was followed for the indoor greenhouse site, just this was performed latter in the year to wait for the soil to be able to be tilled and not frozen.

The weed block has just been removed and the grass is still green which shows when you cover it when it is dormmate (late fall) it will remain green until spring. In contrast if you cover it when it is actively growing it will brown in only about 2-weeks. If you add a clear plastic in the heat of summer you can get it to brown in only about 1 hour (or less). Timing is key;-)
