Whole damp heavy sheets of news paper.
Straw is also good but it does get buggy

( I’m a master gardener )
Two books that have good tips for new gardeners
LASAGNE GARDENING
GARDENING BY THE SQUARE FOOT

Both should be available at library or used.

If you have limited space, there are several books and articles on container gardening.

That’s neat, a friend just gave me his copy of square-foot gardening. No, I’m good on space. I have almost 19 acres here. 13 are pasture so I can make the garden as big as I want. Last year it was 30 x 60, which was more than I could handle.

What is the master gardener? Do you have to take classes and stuff?

I know I’m looking for a master optician for glasses. They have to have a bachelors degree for that. They are hard to find but they make all the difference with difficult prescriptions.

I’m watching women’s curling. Who knows why…
