FAQs & Tips
How much mulch do I need?
One yard will cover approximately 100 square feet based on 3 inches deep.
How many inches deep should I spread mulch?
We recommend 3 inches deep to cut down on weeds. Avoid covering your plants and keep the mulch an inch or two from the plant stems. Mulch should be raked or “fluffed” periodically, which will prevent the mulch from packing down and will also help prevent weed seeds from germinating and growing in the mulch.
Do I need mulch every year?
We recommend that you add 2” – 4” inches of mulch each year. However, to avoid too much mulch buildup, it’s also recommended that you strip away old mulch before adding fresh layers.
If you over-mulch, your plants may suffer from lack of air circulation to the roots,
rot forming in tree trunks and insects nesting in the mulch.
Tips for applying mulch
- Spread your mulch 2” to 4” inches thick.
- Don’t dump a wheelbarrow full of mulch into your beds or you’ll have too thick of a layer. Use your hands, shovel, or mulch fork to transfer mulch from your wheelbarrow to your beds./li>
- Never dump mulch onto your grass — it can kill your lawn.
- Do not create a mound of mulch around the base of your trees. Shape your mulch like a donut (with your tree in the hole) instead of a volcano.
