Mulching is a natural insulating cover of the soil that will protect the roots of shrubs during winter. During this period, mulching will cushion the drop in temperatures. Preferably, this mulching should be done in mid-autumn. Desert Link llc accompanies you for excellent winter mulching.
All your plantings can be mulched: plants, beds, trees, shrubs, vegetable patch. It is possible to mulch on planters or potted plants. Mulching is a particularly effective technique around vegetables or ornamentals because it can filter light and prevent the reproduction of pests that damage plants.
Before mulching, the soil should be cleaned. Weeds and grasses must be removed, this will increase the effectiveness of the cover. Mulch should be thick to protect the soil well. Avoid mulching on windy days and don't wait for the ground to freeze. If you start to see dirt appear in places, you have to repeat the process.
Fall is a good time to plan for winter mulching. It is necessary to deposit a thick layer but without settling it must remain very ventilated. The mulch is placed over the entire surface of the soil occupied by the roots of the plant.
