Depends how many trees you have. If I didn't clear the first few layers
out, my back yard would die entirely. I mulched the final layer, going
back and forth enough times so some green was showing through the brown.

For the sake of neighborhood peace, I did rake and blow the front. Old
fart across the street told me I should take out half the trees in back,
to save time raking.

Thank heavens I have a treeline in back to pile up the leaves, so
disposal isn't a problem. From just 3 previous years of doing that, the
mulch back there is over ankle deep.
