Under Deck Weed Killer + Barrier w/o rock or ?

Steve

I will be using framed lattice backed with screen as an apron surrounding my deck. I'm in planting zone 6a, if that helps.


I want to do whatever needs to be done before the decking goes-on of course. Right now, I'm thinking I'll just lay down a good coat of weed killer and call it good, but wondering if putting a layer of heavy weed barrier (which I've never had any luck with) without any rock makes sense. Low cost is important.


The ground is just churned-up dry clay soil from earlier foundation work. It'll be dark all of the time under there and quite cold 4-5 months of the year.


What would you recommend? Thanks!
