Need advice on renovating a back garden.
OK so, here's the thing.
I'm wanting to sort my mum's rear garden so that when the kids are arounds they can go out back and play. The problems I have are as follows;
There are many patches of nettles that need removing;
The ground isn't level;
My mum refuses to let me use weed killer cause she believes all the stories about it being poisonous for decades after its used...
Now, the fact that the garden looks more like the rolling hills of Ireland than a garden I can sort. What I don't know how to sort is how to kill weeds without weedkiller, on a budget? I mean, neither me nor my mum have much money, so a nice cheap option would be great, a single large bottle of weed killer *would* do the job, if I was allowed to use it. But as I can't I'm looking for advice on cheap alternatives.

It can be done, but it takes time.
Guess it's just gonna be one of those long term jobs, but hopefully once it's done, it's done. Now just gotta get some grass seed, as it's pretty sparce out back, and in time might have a garden to be proud of.
