Can you use them? Don't they rob nitrogen? Don't they make it hard for plants do grow? Do they ever break down? Should I ever EVEN USE THEM!? Wood chips are wonderful. They just take time. Life is about patience, among other things. Woodchips help us remember that. This video shows a high tunnel with permanent raised beds made nearly 100% of pure woodchips of various types. 2 years later they are ready to be incredible seed starting beds.
