RE: Do You Mulch? Prepping The Vegetable Beds

I've used hay mulch since 1993. I get my soil tested each year, no nitrogen deficiency. I do NOT like straw. I am wondering if this would be another reason to not use straw...

Sort:  

Yes, I was told by a farmer that straw does it eventually....I bought hay yesterday (just corrected that in the blog) so I will use it this year. I used straw HEAVILY the last few yeas, this year I won't. I am glad to know hay won't affect the soil at all...thank you!!
