Episode 2: Turn Sand into Soil with Sheet Mulching | Home Grow'n Series Our Sustainable Journey |. A Permaculture Retrofit Series Craig and Regina return on a sunny day to tackle the dreaded Double Gee's, only to discover the weed has spread further than they thought. Loaded with manure and cardboard, they race to smother it before new seeds sprout in spring. This episode features sheet mulching; which involves adding manure to the soil, which is covered with cardboard and then finished with a layer of mulch. Sheet mulching is a gardening method that stops unwanted plants from growing and allows the desired plants to grow. It works by using cardboard to cover the ground which smothers anything growing underneath the sheets. When used with manure, this also improves the soil by speeding up succession and injecting the biology into the soil that will turn the nutrients into humus so you can grow an abundance of plants.

Our Sustainable Journey |. A Permaculture Retrofit Series In episode 4 of Home Grow'n, we create No Dig Veggie beds to prepare for planting our vegetable gardens. We also get solar installed on the roof which will power the house from the sun and it's Kambarang season in the Noongar calendar, which means the hot dry days are coming. So, Craig gets to work carving out the veggie beds to prepare for planting. No Dig is a method of gardening which involves not turning of the soil when planting vegetables. By not breaking the soil, we preserve the microbiology in the soil which in turn makes the soil more healthy and rich with life which feeds the plants that we grow. No dig gardening can be done in numerous ways, but we create beds using the sheet mulching method which consists of manure, cardboard and hay or wood chips.
