Leaves as surface compost?
Hello List,
I covered my garden, one 12 x 12 raised bed, one 4 x 12 raised bed, with a
couple feet of maple leaves in the fall. How do I prepare the beds in the
spring? They have settled down to about 12 inches high, but there is still
quite a pile of leaves.
Do I ;
1. Take off all but the blackened bottom layer and till that in?
2. Do I try to till in most of the leaves?
What is my next move?
Thanks for your responses!
Regards,
Dave
