I have a really big gopher issue and them eating my tree roots and any flowers or vegetables I plant. this set up doesn't "eliminate" the pests but it doesn't feed the. now either. Also it will be easier to maintain as there are little to no weeds to pull and sitting on your knees to plant, fertilize, and harvest is nice since everything is at chest level and you don't have to bend over. plus you can sit on them and work if you like too! | I have a really big gopher issue and them eating my tree roots and any flowers or vegetables I plant. this set up doesn't "eliminate" the pests but it doesn't feed the. now either.

When you're starting a new lawn, planting a strawberry bed, or wanting to improve your soil, straw mulch is a practical, inexpensive choice. It's a natural product, packaged in two standard-sized, rectangular bales made up of flattened flakes bound tightly with string. Dimensions vary depending on the size of the machine used, but a small bale is a 2-string with the larger size sold as a 3-string. You can find straw mulch at home improvement stores, garden centers, and feed stores. | |||
