I am living in eastern Ontario area. Is red cedar mulching good for

Thanks for any hint.

Got a bag attachment for your mower? Grass clippings will take care of
moisture and soil improvement. Your hands will take care of weed control.
Beautification - depends on whether you like the beige color of dried grass.


Thanks. But my grass is full of weeds now, and I have to clean the
weeds first. The grass clips may not be good.

Do you think 8x10 a big area? To me, now it is so big, what do you
think of it? I am not handy.
