Mulches and Compost

Mulches are used on top of garden beds as soil should never be exposed to the sun during hot, dry weather.

The purpose of mulch is to:

1. Keep the roots of plants cool.

2. Help prevent weed growth

3. Prevent moisture loss in the soil

4. Beautify garden beds

Apply mulch around 5-10cm thick remembering to keep mulch about 5cm away from base of plant to reduce the risk of stem rot.

Feeding mulches such as Sugar Cane Mulch are great for Vegetable Gardens and shallow rooted plants. Both will eventually break down and feed nutrients to the soil.
