I have recently lifted a large amount of turf from my garden to create a new flowerbed. I have stacked the turf in a corner of the garden not seen from the house. How do I get this to break down quicker to produce the “loam” I often read about?

If you are doing any more flower beds, a much easier way is to simply kill the grass in situ, either by excluding light or applying Roundup.
You can cover the stack of sods with black polythene or old carpet to stop grass growing and they will break down more quickly.
