It's hard to tell from the picture, but that pile is probably 3' high and 10' in diameter. |
So why did I do this? I needed mulch for my raised beds. The grass was tall and needed to be mowed. I figured I'd bag the clippings and use them as mulch and that leaves would make a nice addition.
So I mowed the lawn, bagged the clippings (with the leaves) and dumped them into my wheel barrow.
This newly created mulch sat in my wheel barrow for two days. That wasn't my plan, but the rain kept me inside. When I finally got a chance, I put the mulch on the raised beds.
Here it is under the cucumbers. |
I put a bulk of the mulch under the tomatoes. |
I mulched down the center of this bed because that's where my most recent transplants are. |
I didn't have enough to cover every bed. I'll have to bag more the next time I mow.
