Garden Notes
Which Mulch is Best? 16 Week Report

Sixteen weeks into the mulch experiment and all five of the mulches are keeping weeds down, but some are doing better than others. All are doing much better than the section that has no mulch.

This is an ongoing experiment this year and we will have periodic updates and a final analysis at the end of the year. To see all the videos about this experiment see this playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLalgWdpIXuNqKLKg_0gRa1NjmwYFoAJl9
