I understand that starting the process of ecological succession and seeing into fruition requires time and patience, but my particular lifestyle doesn't pair well with that: I like to wander from place to place, so on average I only have about a year to start and grow gardens at temporary homes.
Is there any way I could go about speeding up the sheet mulching process so that I can reap its benefits in the small timespan that I stay with it?
If I were staying for shorter durations, I would just compost, but I feel like a year-ish is a middle ground, and so I hope to reach a slightly more permanent solution that I can take with me wherever I go (while leaving behind growing ecosystems).
Any advice on how to be able to have a fruitful garden in a short amount of time?
