Cardboard even in the rain?
Good memories of your dad. I think it shows something about him that he would spend the effort to rake. A lot of people choose not to if they don't have to.
Don't know how long I a longed for this world, but I guess it is better to spend some of that time in the garden.

Yeah it only has to last a few weeks. But if you think the soil stays moist enough for carrots to sprout - or maybe it has something to do with the darkness too?
Look it might be a corny oneness hippie thing, but on a really big level, being up and close with the earth you're going to be part of again in the form of dust ain't such a bad thing. There are worse ways to spend your time, like being an evil mother fucker genociding like a demon and raping children, you know?

I choose not to because free mulch and also if it stays in place long enough outside of the garden beds it stops a lot of the dirt from blowing around in the dryer weather (when the clay isn't baked, it only took me several years of reiterating why we needed ground cover). Additionally I currently like how it looks on bare ground and will have to wait for the groundcover mix I'm planning to come up to re-evaluate XD
