straw as mulch?
I have access to straw which I know can be used as mulch but I have some
questions for those who use it.
1. Do you put it down before or after the vine as established itself?
Will root nodules work through it?
2. Can straw cause to much heat to build up?
3. Can it be dug under in the fall? Will it break down by spring?
4. Any pros and cons about using straw as mulch.
