RE: Only Fools Rush In – The Site-Specifics of Sheet Mulching
You've got yourself a bacteria job and you're putting bacteria food on your bacteria table for your bacteria kids, taking them to their bacteria extra-curricular activities and having a bacteria pint down the bacteria pub with your bacteria mates
Haha love it. I have seen sheet mulching before on steemit but never really stop to read about it until now. We mulch amd use compost but i am keen to try this especially in the summer when the soil gets baked. I will start to research now.. thanks for planting the seed 💚
Keep in mind too that on first go, it can increase pests. Sheet mulch gives them a great home, especially slugs and voles, which SUCKS. However, it's because you're starting that succession from the base so in doing that, it will attract their predators but it could take time. I miss coffee ground and diatomaceous earth in with it too now and that really helps with those little critters. :)
Hm yes that was my big worry. I was thinking that if you allowed a big ring around the plants and sprinkled with coffee or dichomtamepus earth maybe.
