Hello Permies!
I Have a question for you which I wasn't able to find an answer through by Googling it
I have a lot of cut down Elder tree in my garden and was wondering if the wood is suitable for building a Hügelkultur bed. Being a very fast growing plant I'm a bit skeptical, does anyone know if it's safe to use or if it is strongly allelopathic.
What about paradise-tree (Simarouba glauca)? Also very fast growing and reminds me of Black Locust, which I heard is not very good.
I also have some walnut wood which has been lying in my garden for a lot of time (5 years maybe) and was wondering if by now it would be safe to use in a Hügelkulture.
