Homestead Vlog #1 | The Ultimate Leaf Mould Guide: Fix Clay & Sandy Soils For FREE! 🍂

This week marks exactly 2 years since I moved here, and to celebrate this milestone, I’ve decided to finally start a regular vlog capturing my entire homestead journey. I wanted to kick off this first episode with something fundamental to building up the land: turning a simple, free resource into "gardening gold" — Leaf Mould. Don't throw away your fallen leaves! Whether you are dealing with heavy, compacted clay soil or dry, light sandy soil, leaf mould is the ultimate soil conditioner to fix your garden's texture, retain moisture, and boost soil biology. In this vlog, I’ll also show you my favourite time-saving hack: using a strimmer to dramatically reduce the volume of your leaves and skyrocket the decomposition speed from two years down to just twelve months. Plus, we’ll look at how to apply it as a brilliant, weed-suppressing mulch. So, grab a cuppa, settle in, and let's get into it! ☕✨ If you found this video helpful, please give it a thumbs up, subscribe to the channel to follow the homestead vlog, and leave a comment below sharing your own leaf mould tips! #gardening #leafmould #soilhealth #organicgardening #homesteading #homesteadvlog #sustainablegardening #strimmerhack #gardentips #mulching #growyourownfood #alotmentlife
