Just moved into a cottage with huge area of lawn. I'm wanting to start a meadow wild flower garden and have read conflicting advise about whether I need to dig up the whole lawn. My lazy idea is to cut lawn really short at end of summer and rake through it leaving lots of bald patches and then seed the whole area. Does anyone know if this will be enough to get rid of most of the strong grass? If the lawn needs taking up what is the easiest way to do this please? I'm short on time and tbh don't fancy the idea of digging it all up myself.
