    Hi all, 5weeks ago I used roundup to kill off the badly wild rush garden lawn, it has done its Job fantastically.

    My next stage now is to turn the soil and rotavate it before reseeding

    is there a machine out there that will push the stones underground as its been turned, I have just under a quarter acr to do

    Tnx

    No, you have to rake them and pick them unfortunately. The thoughts of doing it are worse really, just take the bigger stones. I'd leave the peoples/smaller stones to aid drainage

    Yes there is, it's called a stone burier and looks like this

    Janey, you learn something new everyday, I've never heard of that! My apologies OP. I'm a bit old school I'm afraid!

    There is also a machine called stone rake which will collect the stones into rows. Depends on how stony your ground which one is more suitable.
