I mulch as much as possible with leaves, though I know this isn't really practical for larger-scale growers. I love the speed with which they break down -plenty of time to keep the soil evenly moist and the weeds down but by the end of the season they're well on their way to contributing excellent organic matter to my beds. The worms are even bigger fans of leaves; I'm always amazed at the volume of castings just below the leaf layer. It helps, too, that the things are free!

So is plastic (with out soil on it) not good? -Allan in WV _______________________________________________ Market-farming mailing list Market-farming AT lists.ibiblio.org http://lists.ibiblio.org/mailman/listinfo/market-farming
