Weed Control
We are planting 5 rows of bananas 10 per row. So far half the suckers are planted. The plan is to put a thick layer of old wood chips along the rows [leaving a bare space around each plant]. And probably leaving grass down the corridors between the rows. A friend suggested that we first put down a layer of cardboard[ corrugated or old cartons what ever is available]then put the wood chips on top. I think wood chips would be OK but cardboard under the chips??? I started to put the cardboard down but thought it better to check whether it is beneficial for the banana plants. Thanks and God Bless.:
