Here is my question, I just put in some tulip bulbs. Can I/Should I use my compost as mulch? I have a few bags left over from the summer. I was hoping to use it in spring/summer 2010. Does it make sense to use good compost in winter? Any pro/cons I should be aware off. I was planning the throw some coffee ground I picked up from the local Starbucks as well. Thought/suggestions Quote \| Reply \| Report
