Why wood chips might not kill your grass for good

Turns out, smothering your lawn with wood chips isn’t always a permanent fix—one homeowner found out the hard way when their grass made a dramatic comeback after three years. After covering a dead lawn with several inches of wood chips (sourced for free from tree removal crews), they enjoyed a lush sunflower garden—until the grass pushed through the mulch, stronger than ever. The trick they missed? Laying down a barrier like cardboard first. It’s a real eye-opener for anyone considering ditching their grass for a more eco-friendly yard. Has anyone else tried this method or had a similar surprise? #Home #gardeningtips #lawncare
