Not true for tight small city yards.
I would need a layer of mulch deeper than any of my in ground plants could handle.
I have exactly that, a 1” layer of straw mulch protected my raised garden beds. You can also use biodegradable “plastic” mulch too.
I don't have raised beds
You don’t need raised beds to mulch them?
But then the mulch won't stop the weeds unless I do it deep enough to hurt my plants. I don't understand why you are so adamant that works for you with a completely different setup is so important for me to do.
Wait how is my yard dry and dusty and also full of weeds?
