Mulch shredded newspaper
I was thinking of using shredded newspaper to mulch the strawberry
bed.
Anybody try this? Good idea, bad idea

No problem, except it looks like hell. I'd use a top coat of leaves or
alfalfa, or some such. Most newsprint is done with soy ink these days,
including the color sections. You may want to avoid the slick glossy
week-end inserts though. They may not have been printed by the paper. To
be sure, call the paper and verify.
