Mulch has to be the single best thing you can do for your garden plants and get the best results from. You can take a drab looking landscape, apply mulch around the plants and garden areas and by evening, the same drab landscape looks as though it was maintained professionally. The sole purpose of mulch is to protect the soil. It should allow enough air space and for water to percolate down to the ground. The reasons to mulch can go on and on. However, let's talk about a few of them. It creates enough of a defined area around trees and shrubs so that anyone with a mower or weed eater will avoid damaging the plants, and that maybe the most common reason as to the demise of younger plants.
One of the most important part of gardening is mulching. Mulch will slow down the evaporation of moisture from the soil, which also will keep the soil from drying out and creating a crusty soil. Earthworms love organic mulch, they eat the organic matter and produce castings. Other organisms do the same. All the work they do makes a nutrient-rich substance that our plants need. This process is actually decomposition, which adds valuable organic humus to the soil. 1. Distribute the mulch material to a depth of at least 3 to 5 inches.
