I've been using concrete re-enforcement wire for over 40 years and a lot are the same cages .... Nothing better ...  

I'd like to reopen this subject ..... Has anyone found a GOOD way to grind/crush Bio Char ?

Bermuda, crab grass … I was brought up calling it wire grass, all the same basic stuff from what I can tell…. I’ve been battling it since I started gardening 37 years ago …
I’ve tried the cardboard, the plastic, the fabric (it loves the fabric something to grab hold of) …. Mulch before the above and after, till and till again, spend hours going through each square inch of soil by hand getting every sprig you can find … Pray over it, cuss it, accuse it and finally just admire it, for it’s strength and persistence….
All you can do is dig it out when you see it, be vigilant and smile …..
Never put it in a compost pile even if you think its dead, it’s not…. Dry it out and burn it…

Hugelkultur bed for asparagus .... Has it worked out well for thouse who have done it ?? ... I'm ready to replace my old bed and wonder if it will Benefit .....
