Hi All,

One of my garden plots has visqueen over it and seven
holes that I grow stuff through. The visqueen has
pine bark as cover over it.

If I decide to recover the entire area and remove the
visqueen, can just dig the pine bark under, or do
I need to remove it?

Many thanks,
-T

why not reuse it as a top mulch in your
gardens?

seems like a waste of a valuable material
to dig it in and then cover it...

I agree, plus it would probably tie up a large amount of nitrogen in the decomp process.

And the mulch will gradually disappear into the soil beneath.
That's a Good Thing!

Hi Songbird, Steve, and Gary,

Didn't think of that. Thank you!
