Some of my vegetables: a mix of salads, fava (Vicia faba), carciofo (Cynara cardunculus), patata (Solanum tuberosum), cipolla (Allium cepa), and sedano (Apium graveolens).
I have mulched the ground with grass cut nearby, and also with dried leaves. The mulch keeps the ground moist, discourage growth of weeds, prevent soil erosion and compaction, and will eventually enrich the soil when decomposed.
I am a big proponent of mulching and I like your practical choices of mulch materials. I did not know you had a blog!!! Way to go!!! Now meron na akong kasama/kakilala sa blogosphere. Yay!!!
ReplyDeleteWhen I get move back to the Philippines, I will do a mulching campaign:)!
