Since creating a mulch layer in the autumn period is desirable, it is worth deciding on the options.
Some types of mulch are ideal for specific weather conditions.
What options are worth considering?
Pine nut shells
This option is one of the most expensive, but it is also considered one of the best. Cedar nut shells do not interfere with proper air exchange, protect against frost, and retain moisture.
But this is not the most important advantage.
As it turned out, the use of this type of mulch contributes to a significant improvement in the soil microflora.
Foliage
It is worth noting right away that this type of mulch is suitable only for shrubs and trees. Dry and healthy leaf litter is used.
This helps to increase crop yields by enriching them with valuable substances.
Other options
You can consider options with the bark of coniferous trees, and also use dry coniferous litter. Some summer residents use straw and wood shavings.
You can also use sawdust, compost and humus.
