I hope this is in the right forum since it's sort of the opposite of lawn care. If I need to move, please tell me and I'll delete and repost somewhere else.
So, I've posted elsewhere in Permies seeking information to apply to a game I'm designing. Long story short, it's like a farming sim but specifically with a semi-realistic homesteading theme. I'm seeking the endless wisdom of the Permies forum-goers in order to make this game as awesome as possible.
Now, onto my question. Say you have a grassy area that you want to turn into soil to plant in. Do you just dig up the grass? If so, what do you do with it? Can you
compost it or will it taint your compost with grass that'll later mess up the plants you add the compost to?
I apologize for this most basic question but it's honestly something I've never considered. I have grass in my game and need to know how the player will rid themselves of it if need be. Plus, I'll likely be able to apply this to my own home gardening XD
Thanks for your time and wisdom, it is greatly appreciated.
