Sandra,
I am trying hay as a mulch this season for our potatoes. We have heavy
clay soils and you know what that does to spuds. I just dug a trench 12"
deep and 12" wide and set the seed in the bottom of the trench about 12"
apart and covered with hay then pulled some soil over the hay to keep it
in place. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
