Re: leaves and winterizing
Hello, everyone,
Decided to come out of lurk mode and ask another question about
the leaves for mulch. My greenhouse lady says not to use leaves
at all, or grass clippings, because of the possibility of
disease. She says to use shredded wood chips, from tree and
stump removal, I suppose. I would have to get those from the
landfill. Does it depend on the part of the country you're in?
Here it is cold winters, dry summers. I can get locust tree
leaves from a friend down the street, that would be much easier
than finding chipped wood. Is it okay for me to use leaves?
