Greetings all! I am keen on Mark's videos, and have built 2 new raised beds with sheet metal roofing, and filled in with Tree stumps, etc.
After preparing the soil, I decided to plant seeds for beans, peas, beets, and lettuce. 1- days later and the lettuces are peeping through! A start. Then it occured to me that Ineed to mulch the beds, which leadz to my question:
Is it OK/safe to use wood chips as mulch on top of the seedlings? I have access to as much as I want, and have used them in thee orchard for years. The mulch is mostly Monterey Cypress. Any guidance is much appreciated. Cheers!
