[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm currently trying to fix my front landscaping, which is going TERRIBLY, and have added another raised bed in the backyard, which will be fine (not planting veggies yet).

Also this year I bought a compost tumbler so I can stop paying for compost delivery every year.  Fingers crossed![/quote]

What’s going on with your front landscaping? I’m working on this too and it sucks because the beds are like 80% clay![/quote]

Mine's the opposite problem -- things grow too well.  I am trying to replace the (very sloped, hard to mow) grass portion out front with groundcover/mulch, and I decided not to kill everything off with a harsh pesticide first because bees and the environment and decency.  So now I have mulch with just an astonishing amount of weeds/grass poking up through it, and I feel like I should've just Round-up'ed the whole slope to give myself a blank slate.[/quote]

[b]Can you try to plant out the weeds by adding in more plants?[/b] Did you dig the grass and turn it upside down before mulching? That's how I always make new beds.[/quote]

Well that's the plan but it's not working so far.  Will keep at it.[/quote]
