I remvoed some junipers which exposed soil to the sun and allowed the nutgrass to start growing. I am working on it using hand weeding techniques.

I am getting less and less nutgrass comming up. this is about where many people quit. the nutgrqass is comming up about the size of threads. If I quit now keeping it out now in a month it wi9ll be back full strength.

Every time I see any nutgrass I pull it. I suspect I will still have some next spring but shortly thereafter it will quit. I do have nutgraqss comming up in a few other areas and i haven't been as good at keeping it out so the next step is work on getting the other areas under control.
