Mulch – Hay and Pinestraw
Q: Can I use wet, moldy hay for mulch in my vegetable garden? What about pine straw?
A: I think both materials could be used. I’d break up the moldy hay and spread it a few inches from the stems of vegetable plants. Contrary to rumor, pine straw does not acidify the soil but could make an acceptable mulch for vegetables too.
