Mulch helps control soil temperature and is an effective
method of preventing weed growth. Mulch prevents light
from reaching the soil surface, denying young weeds the
opportunity to build a root system. As well as
inhibiting weed growth, organic mulches add nutrients to
the soil as it decays. A quality fabric barrier between
the mulch and the soil enables soil to retain moisture,
maximizing the effectiveness of watering while allowing
water and nutrients to flow to the soil. A layer of 2-5
inches of bark mulch is recommended for a good,
effective covering. Applied correctly, mulch can
eliminate or greatly reduce the need for trimming and
weed removal in your lawn and garden. It can also
provide a very attractive ground cover in your display
beds.
Mulch can be applied anytime throughout the year.
However, because of the insulating properties of mulch,
some seasons are more desirable than others. In the cold
winter months, apply it only 1 inch thick to insulate
the ground to prevent soil warming. Since spring is the
planting season, remember to push aside mulch from newly
planted seeds, seedlings, and bulbs. In a vegetable
garden, mulching should not be done until the tomatoes
blossom. In the fall when mulching around transplants, a
5 inch coverage is needed to delay frost penetration,
allowing more time for root growth.
The area(s) should be cleared of all weeds, leaves and
grass. If you are preparing an area on an established
lawn, make sure you strip the sod completely. Edge
around the entire border of your landscape area. If you
are replenishing the mulch on an existing area, be sure
to loosen up the old mulch. Using your hands to spread
the mulch produces the best results. Use a thickness of
2 to 5 inches, not allowing the mulch to make direct
contact with the plants. This avoids disease problems.
When finished, the mulch should be watered down to put
moisture in it and help it to settle into place. Please
write us with any questions you may have about mulch (or
