>Another direction to consider: what species of tree was it?

It was a plain old Green Ash. Not high on the natural herbicide
producers list, I would guess.
I guess I should have been a little more clear on my question. Is there
anything I can till in WITH the grindings and dead sod to make it
plantable in the first few weeks? Bill Lee mentioned that the
grindings/sawdust use up the nitrogen in the soil before they break
down. Could I till composted manure in with the grindings? What's a
good high nitrogen amendment? Chicken droppings? I have very alkaline
clay soil, so anything added can only help, methinks!
Thanks for taking the time to help me.
