[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 702231, member: 4362"] If it were me, I'd go ahead and spray it with roundup before it stops growing and let it die good before touching it. This will allow you to do a much better job when you put an implement in it. I like the idea of turning it but even when you turn it there is the chance of it clumping some if the grass roots are alive. Killed and aged is a different story - it will work just so much easier. I also like the idea of finishing it in the spring. Personally, I'd do this in early spring and allow enough time for the weeds to sprout then hit it again with roundup. This will get any of the spurrs that may sprout. Once you sprig it and pack it, spray the packed dirt with 2,4-D immediately. This will screw up texas millet and other weeds and not allow them to grow a proper root system. Sandspurs in bermuda are a pain but thank goodness they are annuals so this is their achilles heel.
