Got it plumbed, taped, tested, mulched, and ready for plants and only checks bare wrist three weeks left til Frost Date.
Hugel got the same treatment, but I was a bit shy on the mulch. I usually use crushed leaves from my backyard for this, but I didn't have near enough to do everything I'm laying down. This Fall I'm definitely gonna drive through the neighborhood snatching the leaf bags folks put out.
Suckers. Just giving away free brown
The county I live in takes it to a station and turns it into compost, bags it, and resells it. It's pretty good stuff, too, but I need it a little less along for mulch.
Plus, why would I give up the opportunity to pretend I'm a pirate?
