Using cardboard as a weed barrier/mulch is a great idea but you need to use brown, uncoloured cardboard. That's not paint turning it into nice, bright and pretty colours. It's a plastic coating that will contaminate the soil as the cardboard breaks down. Great to watch the process, especially as it's not just a food forest you're creating, which a big thing itself, but heading down the rabbit hole of regenerative agriculture. Something that the whole agriculture culture in NZ needs to adopt.
If your ground had grass species that you wanted to stop growing why have you left walk ways of it.??? I hope you don't have grass problems later on down the track where grass killer might be added.

Good info
Thanks for watching.
*Wonders how many neighbours bins for how many months Tom has been raiding for cardboard?* 🤣
Local McDonalds did the trick!
They must have wandered what the hell was going on as I emptied their cardboard bin 16 days in a row!
