I can tell you what I'm doing with a portion of my yard where I'm creating a new garden.{ about 50x50' } I got 4 dump trailers of fairly fresh un composted horse manure mixed with wood chips and hay. I spread it out with the FEl and am going to let it compost on the spot.I'll add some of my snake oil to the concoction for the process. In a couple of weeks I'm covering it with a thick layer of hardwood chips and just let the area stew for the summer.No tilling as I believe unnecessary. Soil underneath is poor and poorly drained. Doesn't matters the lasagna will add the fertility which will only get better with time and certainly adequate for fall garden. If I get the chips on in time I may even try a few summer plantings as well.
Mowing grass in a yard seems like a worthless use of time when you can have an edible yard!
