If your new garden is a bit overgrown or has loads of weeds you can flatten out cardboard boxes and use them as a weed barrier. They will decompose over time and rot back into the soil. Ensure there is no packing tape left on the boxes as this will not rot.<\/li><li>Place a cardboard box around young seedlings to protect them from harsh winds.<\/li><li>Shred thinner boxes to lay around your strawberries to stop water splashing.<\/li><li>Cut down boxes to make seed trays. Just cut the boxes down to the depth you need and then seal the flaps to make seed trays.<\/li><li>Create a pathway by laying out your path with flattened boxes. Edge with bricks, fill in with soil and mulch and you have an instant path. Weeds won\u2019t grow through the cardboard either.<\/li><li>Make planters from boxes. Decorate the box with whatever takes your fancy, line it with plastic like a thick rubbish bag or several carrier bags, then fill it with soil and plants.<\/li><li>Prep new borders by laying out cardboard over the shape you want the new borders to be. Water the cardboard, and weigh it down with mulch or soil. Do this over winter and by the spring the cardboard will have decomposed and you will be ready to start planting.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bonus use for leftover cardboard boxes<\/strong>: Line the rabbit\u2019s hutch with shredded cardboard to make eco-friendly bedding.
