We stocked up on a couple of rolls of straw in the fall.
Mown grass is an invaluable assistant in gardening. Moisture, fertiliser and covering the soil - microorganisms are blessed under the mulch and plants grow without hassle.
We have been “friends” with grass for a long time and we use it. Gaining experience with straw is ahead, as it is gradually being introduced into the garden. Mulching is a non-stop process.
But if you want the earth to warm up faster - and for some plants it is extremely necessary for the earth to be warmed up, then the mulch must be moved.
This is how we garden. It’s impossible to resist - +5° and you’re already running to your beds, interacting with Mother Earth with your hands.
