Default Mulch containers.

Hello,

I mowed yesterday using my bag on the mower . Because leaves are
falling. . And got two contractor bags full of leaves and grass. Think
55 gallon barrel bag size. Can I leave them in the bags and put them
on the garden next spring. Or do I have to make a mulch container. I
think I can get 4 bags of grass when I mow. I was thinking of tying 4
pallets together if I have to make a container.


I use chicken wire (actually the larger 1.5" grid wire) for the compost
bins. 99% of the grass and leaves stay in the bin.
Many years ago Dad used to use bricks(cinder blocks) to build a pen,
worked as well.

Cheers
