Here in North Florida, we use oak leaves quite a bit as mulch. The only 
problem with oak are the acorns that sprout up all over the place.  

In Peace,

Subject: [permaculture] leaves/urine

This is pretty inspiring...
For both recycling AND fertility.
Do you use premium leaves like maple? or do you also use 'lesser' leaves like 
oak?
I'm partly interested in your solution for the sake of seed flats, but also 
cause I'm wondering what we'll do with all of our oak (pin oak actually) 
leaves!   The addition of urine just might make the difference for their 
breaking down!

Interested in any and all replies!

Ta,
Frances
