About Using Hay for Mulch

in gardening •  7 years ago 

The year before we used straw and this year we used hay on the main garden. We got the large round bales that are several years old and role them out on top of cardboard. It works great.

I have used round bales also. They are harder for me to use as my garden is fenced. They also aren't packed as thickly so you have to really pile it on. But free hay is free hay....

I have never used newspaper or cardboard in my organic garden. I worked in a box company for a while, don't want that in my food source...
