Beginner Guide Pt. 2 - What methods will you use? Dig or No-Dig? What path surface should you have? Raised beds or straight in the ground?
Mistakes/Omissions:
- One thing I definitely should have mentioned is that you can buy biodegradable membranes! These are perfect for some planting projects or for laying down as a base for starting paths if you can't get your hands on 1000 cardboard boxes!

- I didn't mention rotorvation in this either! I took it out just for run time. But rotovating is basically like a big mechanised dig. So most of the points for digging stand true for rotorvation. But the biggest drawback is that if you have any rhizominous weeds that spread by root, often this will get chopped up and spread all over your plot during rotorvation.
