  1. Trying the #ChopAndDrop approach to the garden this year. Seems like a good idea, and is slightly easier too, which is nice. Plant nutrients kept in situ to reabsorb over the winter and spring

  3. A little talky #video of some pre-winter #gardening work I did today-- the bed is not finished, but there will be more pressing things to do this week, with a likely change in #weather next week!

  5. @SecularJeffrey @punko In the long run, I don’t think it matters.

    In the short run, cutting at the end of the season & leaving the trimmings as mulch & then compost (“chop & drop”) might speed up meadow development a bit, especially with the added effects of seed scattering.

    I am no expert, however. Hopefully one will come along & tell us both the right answer.
