    Tumbling is the last thing to do to a worm farm. It mixes nitrogen and carbon, kicks off hot compost and kills them. I got to this point and realized this is not a webinar done by anything approaching an expert. Nice try though.

    I was getting a lot of boxes so I did this. I went from dead soil to rich dirt in a few yrs. I now have a beautiful back yard and not many weeds. I also use a lot of wood chips and mulch. Plants love it. Now I’m doing raised beds for veggies and fruit trees. What lawn I do have is clover. Bees love it and it smells great. Fierce a few mows the clover gets dwarf.

    WARNING: There's something new since 2020 ish. Hay, straw, any type of grasses that are fed to horses and cows and such Have been sprayed with something called Grazon to keep the weeds out, and it kills everything you try to grow besides grass. If you put it in your garden or the maneuver from animals that ate it will ruin your garden. Killing everything you're trying to grow. You can dig out as much as possible if you do make this mistake and then plant any sort of grass in there for 3 or 4 years and it will pull it out of the ground.

  • @chelseaclerke3582
    @chelseaclerke3582 Рік тому

    I'm curious about when you cut through the cardboard to plant your plants, do you not have to remove the grass underneath the plant if it is still alive or do you just plant over top of the live grass? I currently have wet cardboard down on my lawn with compost, topsoil and mulch on top and I'm afraid to move forward. It is Mid-May and I would like to have all my spring veggies planted in my garden by the end of the month. Is that actually possible or do I need to wait for things to decompose?

    I keep encountering instructions everywhere for folks who want to get rid of weeds and larger areas of lawn etc but keep the soil healthy for plants. I'm trying to find a way to purely remove a swath of pure lawn and replace it with mulch. I therefore don't want any soil underneath it to be healthy- I just need a way to remove a lawn and replace with mulch on this one whole side of my lawn. Does anyone have a suggestion on this?? TIA!

    Hi, would sheet mulching work to kill back morning glory in an area? Or would it just poke through since it has rhizomes?

    • @stopwasteorg
      @stopwasteorg Рік тому

      Sheet mulching suppresses weeds by blocking sunlight and preventing seed germination. It will help suppress morning glories from re-emerging and spreading via their rhizomes but expect to need to hand pull any plants that emerge as the sheet mulch decomposes. Make sure to hand pull them before they flower and go to seed. In case you’re actually dealing with bindweed, which looks similar to morning glories, you’ll need to persistently sheet mulch and hand pull across multiple seasons - managing bindweed is a long-term battle and won’t be dealt with quickly!
