  • Today we create a new garden bed in about an hour using rocks, paper grocery bags and mulch. This no dig method has been a great time saver for me. We also show how to keep the grass from Creeping into the rocks, which we get asked a lot!

    Team work - I love it! This was interesting to watch. I honestly thought you were done laying the mulch the first time around until I saw your husband with another load. This was good to see - so thank you for the visual of the entire process. Can't wait to see what you do with your new space.

      Thanks, Mary Beth. I do use the mulch very deeply in New beds. 😍🌺🪴🏵

    Soleil: Dyou happen to know what conifers there are, across the street, that are all golden/yellow? I'm dying to know what provides such color! Thank you for showing us your complete no-dig process -- that was marvelous. Can't wait to see this bed in a year.

      Yes, those are false mophead cypress. I have some in my garden but have kept them small through trimming so far, but they get really big. 🥰☘️⚘️🪻

    Soleil, this looks beautiful! I hope you can wait for a few months lol. being the gardener and the love of plants you have. I know it will be hard. it would be that way for me. i did the cardboard last year underneath my mound of clay dirt. I have to make raised bed on my property dud to when it rains there are big puddle that sit, we are on a wooded lot. so this year I am going around to those garden bed and turning all that clay soil and mixing in horse anure and tree chips from cutting down a tree. boy was that hard work! (clay is so hard) and so i see where you just added mulch. i am wondering how that works when you plant your shrubs and things, and will you dig down low into the dirt enough to put your new plants in. does this make sense? hahahah or will you just plant in the mulch. very interesting. Do you think the shredded mulch breaks down just as good as the kind you have. I normally don't use mulch but after watching your vidios I see it so good for moisture, weeds and the look. I used to always just get out there and weed as things come up. but boy I am getting older and it's getting harder hahah. thanks so much for your vidios I have learned a lot from watching them. Your gardens are just beautiful!

      It's definitely and exercise in patience, Genie! It is a lot of work to get mulch down every year, but I wouldn't not do it because I swear otherwise I would be overgrown with weeds! 😉🪻🌿🏵

    How would you put in plants in there if the paper bag are underneath.

    • @Suburbanoasis
      @Suburbanoasis  Год назад +2

      The paper bags will compost in place and then I can plant. 🙃🌺🏵🌷

  • @kaystinebrink1220
    @kaystinebrink1220 Год назад +2

    I'm interested in your project. I tried covering grass with cardboard last fall to kill grass. The cardboard is still not completely broken down. Maybe my cardboard wall too thick?

    • @Suburbanoasis
      @Suburbanoasis  Год назад +1

      Did you use water? It is an essential element to the composting process. 🥰🌷🌿🪻

      The breakdown on the brown bags will be about a month, but I will try to avoid planting for two months at least. Best if I have patience until fall. 😄🌸🌲🪴

    Timely video. I have some shrubs in the front lawn and am thinking they really would look good connected by a bed. I love stones as well. I wanted to tell you that the Thermacill mosquito repeller really works well. It emits a smoke that keeps them away. I use it all summer. It's a life saver. You just turn it on and put it in the area you are working in. Thanks for the great video!

    • @Suburbanoasis
      @Suburbanoasis  Год назад +1

      I will try to remember, it hasn't rained much so the progress will be slower than normal but expect or hope to plant some this fall.. 😉🌸🌷🪷

    Cutting in a new garden bed is always so satisfying 😆
    Was nice to see how you’re doing the no-dig-I’m going to be adding a large bed soon and was thinking of doing the same process, but I’m wanting to add some garden soil on top of the cardboard, then mulch on very top. Do you know if that method works, too??

    • @Suburbanoasis
      @Suburbanoasis  Год назад +2

      Definitely, have done it that way as well in the past! 🤗🌸🌼💐

      Actually I'm also going to create a similar bed on my sod. I have composted horse manure, can I use manure for my flower bed? I will put plants in next spring. Do I need to add mulch as well? Zone 6B, Kentucky. Thanks
