RE: Tomato Massacre & The Beat Goes On la de da de da
I hope so too! I've learned this lesson well. I mulch like crazy in the garden. It wakes a world of difference on how often we need to water in the summer. The only issue is it gives slugs a good hiding place but I am starting to become master of finding them.
Yes, the insects in Spring here love the mulch. I tend to clear it off then but it's okay over winter and I throw coffee grounds, ground egg shells and maybe diacatomous earth over the most tender things til they grow up a bit. Pesky horrid slugs!!
