First, do a soil sample for Giant White Clover. Next, wait until the grasses and weeds start growing/green up. Ig the plants are not growing the herbicide will now work. After the application of the Round-Up you will want to wait about 2 weeks for the herbicide to travel into the root system. If possible burn off against the wind. By this time you should have your soil sample back. You will then disk the area up lightly.The more you disk the more seed/spore you will bring up. Then add the lime and float disk and cultipack.
