Oh heck - I need to come up with an easy side dish. Hmmmmm.
She just... she just did the math.

Way to go, Suzi!
OK, someone confirm this makes sense. I have an irregular sort of rectangular spiral to cover with mulch 3" deep. I measured the lengths of each side and it totals 93 feet if I add them all together. I cut the cardboard to be 4 feet deep. So I need 93 cubic feet of mulch. 93x4x1/4 Right?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Leaving work early to go get two fillings. If that ain't adulting, I don't know what is.

Good suggestion, scrappy. I checked with K and she said dessert. I'm thinking of making brownies. Or shoot, just buying something. Depends on what yells at me when I hit the store.

Timelies all!
I'm sorry, Pix.

Sorry, -t. I just asked my landlord when I wanted to mulch and he said, "'Bout 2-3 of the bags at Southern States Nursery should get it done." Your math looks reasonable to me, though.

What do you mean by "rectangular spiral"? I'm having trouble picturing this. Which direction is the cardboard -- horizontal or vertical?

Unfinished rectangle is actually a better description. It would be 35 ft wide x 20 ft tall if it were complete but the right edge is only 18 feet and the bottom is only 20 ft (but the angles are all right angles). Looking down on it as if my lawn were a plane. The cardboard covers a 4 ft strip along those edges, in the same plane.

OK, I think I see. Then, yeah, you'll end up with a little extra because you're counting the corners twice, but 93x4x1/3 should give you roughly the number of cubic feet you need.
