Everything old is new again.
That’s why we call ourselves “ReNature”—an ode to the natural cycle of “Mother Nature” and the rebirth of the planet’s thriving vegetation. At the center of it all is our organic wood mulch, a trusted product for green thumb enthusiasts and commercial companies.
What is Organic Mulch?
When spread over soil, mulch collects moisture, suppresses weeds, and keeps the ground temperature cool. Organic mulch, in particular, enriches soil fertility and improves water drainage as it decomposes over time.
Organic types of mulch include:
- Shredded bark or wood chips
- Hay and/or straw
- Leaves and grass clippings
- Newspapers
- Compost
With all-natural nutrients permeating the ground, microorganisms have a dense feed. This delicate incubation breeds the growth of good microbes. As you can see, there’s more to mulch than mere ground cover. For dirt, clay, and sandy soil, mulch options may differ entirely.
So, let’s “root” for good habits with our guide to Mulching And Manicuring 101.
Low Maintenance Mulch: Choose Wood Chips or Bark
Wood is more durable, takes longer to break down, and needs replenishing less often. Popular wood chippings include cedar, pine, spruce, and hemlock. Aesthetically, shredded wood or bark gives a rustic feel complementing trees, shrubs, and walkways. Functionally, it’s easy to remove and won’t gum up your yard or parking lot withstanding weather conditions. Economically, if you choose a wholesaler, like us, organic wood mulch will be vastly discounted.
How to Apply Mulch
- Most experts recommend a two to three-inch layer of mulch as a foundation, then an additional inch to garden beds every spring or fall.
- But don’t suffocate your greenery – provide an inch of space or more separating mulch from the base of tree trunks, shrubs, florals, and vegetables. Mulch acts as a water basin, and too much moisture can cause rotting if you’re not careful.
- Don’t overapply mulch. According to the National Association of Landscape Professionals, a thick spread can cause roots to grow shallow. When this happens, plants roots are susceptible to dying off especially if weather patterns experience an extended dry period.
- Mind your environment. Just by adding mulch cover, you’ll also reduce soil erosion and sediment runoff. Research by Day and Virginia Tech graduate student, David Mitchell, found that bare soil lost about five times as much sediment than soil protected with mulch.
- Selecting a lighter compost, such as fresh grass clippings, can affect soil pH and may cause nutrient deficiencies and a possible buildup of toxins.
