Perennial weeds, for example, docks thistle, nettles, and couch grass can be dealt with using a translocated herbicide such as Round-Up. Cultivate to achieve a fine seedbed, sow seed mix and then roll to ensure firmness. The best results are obtained when there is good contact between the soil and the seeds.
