I've seen different guides and even the official prima guide is unclear. I understand it is the last friday of april. Some guides say to let weeds pile up so you can get more items but others make it seems that weeds just appear on weeding day to pick. I know you have to go other players towns for items too, but i'm not sure on how that works either. MOSTLY I need to know if I need to turn off beautiful town ordinance a month early in order to get enough weeds or not to worry.
 
tbh I'd pick up all weeds and leave them alone to get the topiary PwPs, but if you don't want the projects, leave weeds alone until April to rack up items. I don't get Weeding Day either, lol..
 
I wanted the topiary. It is weeding day for me. Since beautiful ordinance was in effect I wasn't concerned. There was one weed in the wide open spaces. I got one piece of furniture and can't do anything else. Not happy.
 
For the topiaries, all weeds have to be gone by 6am and then talk to Leif in the plaza.

For the furniture items, pick all of the weeds in your town on Weeding Day and then talk to Leif to get one of four items. To the get the rest of the items, pull up 30 weeds in another town and then talk to Leif to get one. Clovers and wilted flowers count as weeds.

Weeding Day is confusing and it will take multiple games and maybe TTing/a few years to get all of the items.

Or you could buy the set from someone who does have all of it but that will be pricey.
 
Does pulling weeds in another town count? Say, could I post on the Train Station I wanted to pull weeds no matter what time they were in and then go back to my town? I swear there were no weeds the day before. Come 6 am one crazy weed stuck up in plain sight.
 
There are two sets of Weeding Day items. You get one of four items if you pull all of the weeds in your town.

By pulling 30 weeds in someone else's town, you get one of eight items. So for every 30 weeds in someone else's town, you get an item.

From your town: Cosmos Fan, Lily Record Player, Rose Sofa, Violet Screen

From another town: Azalea Stool, Flower Bouquet, Hibiscus Clock, Hydrangea Bed, Lily Lamp, Pansy Table, Sunflower Stereo, Tulip Dresser

if you pull their weeds won't they be unable to pull it up for their own prize?
 
Honestly, I don't know. I only got the topiaries when I did the event via TTing and got the full set from a user on gamefaqs.

I assume that if someone wanted an item from the first set, they could have people pull up 30 weeds in their town so that they may get their items and then when they are all gone, talk to Leif and get an item.
 
The thing is, you can get a "weeding event" at any time during the year as long as there are enough weeds in your town. If you don't have the beautiful town ordinance in effect, just don't pull the weeds. Eventually there will be enough of them and you will find Leif asleep somewhere in your town. Invite some friends over, talk to Leif to wake him up. You will get a counter telling you how many weeds need to be picked. Once all the weeds are gone - everyone one in town who has picked at least one weed should talk to Leif and will receive a piece of the flower furniture. The pieces are random.

On the official weeding day, you unlock the topiaries if there are no weeds. I can't remember if my mayor character received a gift, but if you have more than one character in your town, let each of them talk to Leif and they will get a piece of the flower furniture.

This is true. After I came back from not playing for a few months Leif was outside my house when I first logged in. He told me to pull all the weeds and I got a counter and a timer. Once I had pulled them all I got the violet screen as a reward. I have a friend who started playing again on the same day I did who had the same thing happen and they also got the violet screen.

I had about 60 weeds if memory serves.
