seedkeeping: This weekend we had two days in the 90s and wow the solarization finally worked well. We use clear plastic drip cloth to “solarize” or basically bake off the weed and crop residue, which we had weed-whacked close to the ground first. It works best over 75-80 degrees, but in the 90s it is powerful. It still only cooks the top bit of soil, so the soil biology isn’t harmed under the surface. This made bed prep much easier on these beds. https://www.instagram.com/p/CeAMOBSOXM6/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI= -- source link
