I am considering the mulching to increase the health of my soil. I'm a
Ruth Stout girl at heart. :-D The more mulch the merrier. I'm too
impatient and lazy for compost.
Are you growing only apples in your orchard?
Regarding the foil, how wide of a strip are you using and how many
times to do wrap it around?
Thanks,
Rondi
