I top mulch with nothing but leaves all the time. It retains water, the
worms love it, it improves the soil, one summer on top of the soil and it's
basically gone. Excess I throw in the compost bin.

Hello,

I have access to tons (yards) of leaf mulch and would like to know what
additional additives are needed to make it useable for flower and
vegetable
gardens. Also, once the additional properties are added, would the
mixture
be useable right away.

Thanks in advance for your suggestion,

Kurt
