  • @Allen2045 Exactly! It's called Lasagna Gardening. This is a very cheap and eco-friendly way to start a garden. There are most likely videos on you tube about them.

  • well heck I just put a ton of pine needles and leaves over a place i plan to start a garden.

  • She did a great job presenting! I love composting and the more that people compost the better the earth and all it inhabitants will be! :)

  • fresh pine needles are real acidic. but they do make good compost once they have broken down. and you can use them for mulch to keep moisture in.

  • pine needles are not good for your garden the pine pitch is highly acidic or at least I have been told. I don't know if they are appropriate for compost for this same reason. Every year I have to pick all of the pinecones out of my garden before we till it.
