  • no dig method

    hi im thinking of trying the no dig method on the plot
    is this the correct way of going about it
    1 clear weeds
    2 spread some muck
    3 cover with cardboard
    4 cover the lot with some membrane

    now do i have to clear all the weeds roots and all or just take the tops off?
    or is it cardboard first then some muck ?

    any help appreciated

    That's it DD. SOme people double dig the first time & maybe every 4 or 5 years, but then it's not strictly No-dig

    You don't have to put the cardboard down either it's just a bit of extra insurance the firat year to cut the light out to weeds.

    In subsequent years just spread Muck/compost over the beds & leave it to the worns.
