Mulching

Weeds can be a nuisance in any garden, competing with (more desirable) plants for space, moisture, and nutrients.

The best way to effectively manage weeds is to use non-chemical methods that are safe for the environment and pets and do not harm desirable plants. Here are some non-chemical methods you can use to control weeds in your garden:

  • Mulch: Apply a layer of organic mulch, such as gum bark (for garden beds) or straw (for veggie gardens), to suppress weed growth and conserve moisture;
  • Hand Weeding: Remove weeds by hand, making sure to pull out the entire root system;
  • Smothering Weeds: Cover weeds with newspapers or cardboard to block sunlight and kill the weeds;
  • Ground Covers: Plant ground covers, such as myoporum or creeping thyme, to suppress weed growth.

Choosing the right mulch for your garden depends on its function and aesthetic. We can help you:

  • Choose the Right Mulch for your Garden: We will consider your specific needs and recommend the most suitable mulch for your plants and soil type.
  • Calculate the Amount of Mulch needed: We will help you determine the right quantity of mulch to cover your garden beds effectively.

By incorporating mulch into your gardening routine, you can effectively suppress weeds, improve soil health, and conserve moisture, leading to a more vibrant and thriving garden.
