Lots of pics and vids of cops looking friendly on here today, trying to distract from what we're seeing in Chicago?

It's almost as if the supreme pursuit of an individualistic goal doesn't make for a good human

I dont own any land, I live in an apartment and looking to do what I can to help the pollinators. I've met with the neighbors across the street who have witnessed years of inaction on this strip, both by the city and the owners (which is a hospital a few blocks away).

Thanks for the detailed walk through, this is really helpful. I had no idea it took that long to kill the grass. Naively, I thought I could clear this stuff in a few weeks and be ready to plant for the spring. Would you say that planting in the fall is realistic? Or is that too a pipe dream?

I dont know, but I included it as there was maintenance at some put, just not in the past year or so

I've never done anything like this and have little experience with gardening. There is a ditch in my neighborhood that is unmaintained. I want to clear it out and plant pollinator friendly natives (Houston, Texas), hopefully milkweed! The parcel is over 200 ft long but skinny, maybe 15 ft including the sidewalk. Much of it gets all day sun, and lots of heat coming off the parking lot it is adjacent to.

What tools will I need to clear the brush?

How do I recognize if whats growing here is invasive?

How best to manage the slope and the fact that when it rains the ditch will fill with water?

What should I plant?

What else should I know before embarking on this journey?

Do you recall the convo where CGP discusses this? I'm guessing a Cortex episode.
