We have fill with very little topsoil. There is an area which was used as a driveway heavily compacted,
In theory sheet mulch uses the soil under the mulch, but there are far too many stones
concrete pavers and what not that this would ever happen.
So I only have the pile I bring in. Let's assume a bed is 3 meters by 1.20. I would use
cardboard several layers, maybe two wheelbarrows of woodchips, one or two bales of lucerne
hay, two wheelbarrows of
mushroom compost, maybe some wheelbarrows of dirt if I can organize this and say 6-8 sacks of horse manure relatively fresh.
For the first year I guess that would be
enough, but what happens the next and the year thereafter?
I can't get
lawn clippings anymore all lawn mowing companies here have mower mulchers now.
