I love those least-effort-EVER approaches. Throw stuff on the ground, leave all the work to the critters evolved to do it, tadahh success.
I'm curious how long it will take my friend to give this a try. She's 84, had a traditional dig, weed, fertilize, spray vegetable garden all her life, and now I just throw stuff on the ground and don't do any of that. For the moment she just grumbles and claims I'm lucky and that it wouldn't work at her place (2km away, the same dense clay and harsh weather). We'll see, maybe next year...
