Why do you need to wait? Is it that it won't hold moisture at all?



hi, Chelle. It needs more actual soil! Whistling
It is still really just last year's huge compost pile full of plant and grass clippings and autumn leaves, piled on top of the layer of cardboard over the grass, and then outlined with old wooden boards. It needs to compact down and decompose some more, then I'll probably add some soil builder and top soil. So I think it won't be ready for a while now, unfortunately. Sad
