Sheet Mulching

(Question)

Hi!

I want to get rid of sod in my backyard and am considering the sheet mulching technique. Is it too late to start this in mid-November?

Thanks!
Amy

Hello Amy,

In fact, the fall is the best time to put down the sheet mulching, since it takes quite a bit of time for the material to decompose!
