Has anyone tried using leaf mulch as a substrate?
My local county authority shreds any leaves handed over for recycling, and they let you haul away as much as you want to shovel. (the same goes for wood mulch)
How well do you think it would work?
it's rather coarse, so I was thinking of mixing it with coco fiber (I already have it on hand), terrarium moss, and possibly whole leaves gathered last fall.
Add one part top soil and this would make a good forest substrate, no?
