[QUOTE="Guleesh, post: 7798844, member: 147187"] I'm no expert but my wife has studied this a bit and tells me wool leaches suint, that contains all sorts of good stuff, and from what we've seen it does seem to do some good. The wool will disintegrate quite a bit if the soil under is healthy, but we'll probably scrape the remainder of it to the side in spring, then just go to standard planting tubers in rows and earthing up. We did that this year with great results. Also I think when the wool is dragged to the edge, it creates a really good slug barrier too, they don't seem to cross it. We'll maybe try a row leaving the wool down and growing under it, but I'm not sure it will supress weeds enough, and it will make it more difficult to remove them. [/QUOTE]
