Mulching Tips

Apply a layer of organic mulch around plants to retain moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature. Use mulch made from materials like straw, wood chips, or leaves for best results. Avoid placing mulch directly against plant stems to prevent rot and pest infestations. Replenish mulch regularly to maintain its effectiveness and appearance in the garden. Consider using biodegradable mulch options that can break down and enrich the soil over time.
