[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If I don't mulch, the weeds take over something terrible.[/quote] Nature abhors a vacuum. Bare soil isn’t an option anywhere but the desert, a beach, or deep, dry shade. Planting things you want very densely, so they crowd out the weeds, is the best way to go. Then you can let fallen leaves mulch for you in the fall/winter, and no need to buy bags and bags! I do usually have a chip drop pile at all times. I use the coarse chips for paths and the partially decomposed material for mulching new plantings, tops of containers, vegetables (where you do indeed want a little space between plants).[/quote]
