How can I easily remove grass from a large area?
Sometimes I really need to remove undesired grass from mud or dirt.
There are many ways to plant grass (for example the Staff of Regrowth), but I don't know of a way to quickly remove it. Is there a way to do this?

I'm quite sure that Grass regrows on blocks in like a creeping effect, as such if you had a platform of land and just one block had grass somewhere on it it would grow back.
my only evidence is when i make sky gardens and i want grass blocks i make a small basin out of stones like this

and then i fill it with dirt even if i'm underground for a long time mining more cobblestone to make into stone blocks no grass will grow, i need grass seed to make a small patch and then it creeps along while i'm away.
If you use a pickax to remove the grass block and then block off the cleared land with something grass can't grow on like stone that should prevent it growing back.
of cause this only prevents it from growing back, removing it quickly is another thing which i know not of a way to do but i assume your problem is that you have to keep removing grass blocks and they keep coming back and your asking for a way to remove them quicker so prevent their grow back might help you

Just hit the grass once with a "bad" pickaxe and the grass disappears. Using a bad one should prevent you from needing to replace blocks that you mined accidentally, speeding up the whole process.
