One thing that might help a little is put down a pre-emergent in the spring. I have a gravel driveway and the weeds suck. I hand pull most of them since I have a big pine tree I don't want to kill. One variety does seem to have gotten better with that method, not as many growing. I did a pre-emergent this year and at least there were a lot fewer dandelions in that area. Still have some of the other weeds though. (Edit, my driveway is only about 45', your 700' has me beat!) 2nd edit - see if there's someplace that rents out goats to eat the vegetation. They have that around here.
What's "pre-emergent" exactly? Time release RoundUp or something? I really don't want to use any type of gylosphate
Just unloaded a few dozen goats. Too cute to kill...AND goats don't work the way most think they do...They browse. Sheep graze in a straight line/formation - goats do whatever the hell they want - mostly something naughty...like climbing on top of buildings...and making lots of milk duds
It’s specifically called a pre-emergent, and they don’t contain glyphosate. Preen is probably the most well known example. A natural one is corn gluten meal, but that costs more than others. That’s what I used in my backyard, I used Preen and another granular type one on my gravel area.
