Benefits of Mulch

What are the benefits of using Mulch?

First of all, what is mulch?  Wood mulches are derived from debarking cut trees. The stripped bark is processed through a grinder and shredded. Due to the variability of the tree types, bark mulches fluctuate, each having their own individual effect. Some mulches provide the soil with nutrients, slowly releasing the nutrients as the mulch decomposes.

When applying mulch, we recommend a total depth of 3" which will allow all the benefits of restricting weed growth, yet still allow water to access the soil.

Benefits of mulch on plants and soil:

Home garden example - mulch

  • Mulch prevent loss of water from the soil by evaporation.
  • Mulch reduces the growth of weeds when applied deeply enough to prevent weed germination or to smother existing weeds.
  • Mulch keeps the soil cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter, thus maintaining a more even soil temperature.
  • Mulch prevents soil splashing, which not only stops erosion but also keeps soil-borne diseases from splashing up onto the plants.
  • Mulch can improve the soil structure. As the mulch decays, the material becomes topsoil. Decaying mulch also adds nutrients to the soil.
  • Mulch prevents crusting of the soil surface, thus improving the absorption and movement of water into the soil.
  • Mulch prevents the trunks of trees and shrubs from damage by lawn equipment.
  • Mulch helps prevent soil compaction.
  • Mulch can add to the beauty of the landscape by providing a cover of uniform color and interesting texture to the surface.

Lawn Maintenance Guide

 

GS&G Tips for a Herbicide-free Approach

Hand-pull weeds from your lawn when they first appear — before they go to seed. By dealing with weeds immediately, you’ll save lots of time later.

Inspect your plants regularly, and at the first sign of insect infestation, learn to identify what particular creature is affecting your plant. Not all bugs are bad! Many are beneficial.

Consider companion planting in the vegetable garden to keep pests to a minimum. For example, plant marigolds around the tomato patch — the marigolds’ strong smell repels insects.

For a good all-purpose, organic spray to control insects, mix one whole garlic bulb, a generous pinch of cayenne pepper and one litre of water in a blender.

Mix thoroughly, let the solids settle and then pour the liquid into a spray bottle. Spray on the leaves (tops and undersides) and stems of insect-infested plants.

Ensure your lawn is healthy by maintaining good moisture and add a soil conditioner, such as Greely's Topdressing Soil.  The healthier the soil is, the stronger the grass grows, which means less chance for weeds to grow.  Check out our topdressing tips.

Topdressing Lawns

Why do I topdress my lawn?

Topdressing your lawn is a great idea since it adds organic matter and nutrients to the soil to help strengthen the root system that supports the grass throughout the season.  And when your lawn in more healthy and dense, it makes it more difficult for the weeds to grow.

When do I topdress my lawn?

The best time is in the spring and early fall when the days are warm with the sun and the evenings are cool.  This will allow for optimal conditions for grass seed to grow.

How do I topdress my lawn?

  1. First of all, make sure your grass is actively growing.  Remove all the dead grass from your lawn by thoroughly raking it.
  2. Core aeration should be done every 2-3 years.  Core aeration removes plugs of soil from the ground and leaves channels for air, water, and our Topdressing Soil to penetrate the surface.
  3. Cut your lawn the day before you apply the soil. Then apply a few shovelfuls to a few square feet at a time.
  4. Spread the soil using something flat, like the back side of a heavy garden rake, working it into aeration holes and covering low spots. Make sure the Topdressing Soil is no more than 1” deep (preferably ½” or less) over the existing grass.
  5. Keep working the soil until your grass peeks through and the depth is even.
  6. For small low spots that need a bit more Topdressing Soil, first remove the existing sod to prevent underground decay that can damage new grass seedlings. After filling in the low spot, either replace the old sod or re-seed the area.
  7. Spread some grass seed over the areas that you want to make more full.
  8. Water the area well.

Do-It-Yourself (DIY) Landscaping Tips

The following are recommendations and tips from Greely Sand & Gravel Inc.  Of course, there are many other websites that offer great ideas for do-it-yourself projects, but these are just a few to help you get started on your do-it-yourself project.

Want to do your do-it-yourself project but don't have the tools to get it done We offer a convenient all-in-one Lawn & Garden Tool Rental Kit.  It has a lawn roller, commercial grade wheelbarrow, tamper, various types of shovels, leveling rake, and much more.  Perfect for sodding a new lawn, installing interlocking,

Greely's Topdressing Soil

Topdressing a lawn: Add 1/2"-3/4" of Topdressing Soil to an old or sparse lawn and then rake the soil through the blades of the grass.  Adding seed to the new soil will help make your lawn more full.  But don't add too much soil for it can smother the lawn, so keep it to a minimum. Want more topdressing tips?

Gardens & flower beds: When adding to existing gardens and flower beds, 2"-3" is recommended.  For increased effectiveness, blend the new soil in to the existing soil.  When making a new garden or flower bed, a 6"-12" depth is recommended depending on the type of plants you will be planting.

Screened Topsoil

For seeding or sodding:  For a new lawn, a good base of 4"-6" of screened topsoil is recommended. When redoing an old lawn perhaps only a 2"-3" new layer of screened topsoil is needed.

Mushroom Compost

Flower beds & gardens: Add 1"-2" of mushroom compost on top of flower beds or gardens and then blend the mushroom compost in to the existing soil.  The mushroom compost is very high in nitrogen, so it is highly recommended to blend the mushroom compost in to the existing soil and to not leave it on top of the beds or allow it to rest against plants.

Mulch

For new flower beds:  Apply 3" of mulch to prevent weed growth yet still allow water to access the soil.

For older flower beds: Apply approximately 1" to refresh the mulch every year or alternating year, depending on the effectiveness of the mulch.

Coloured Riverwash Stone

When calculating depth, be sure to get full coverage.  For example, go with a minimum depth of 2" for the sizes 3/8"-5/8" and 7/8"-1".  For the 1 1/2" size Riverwash Stone, go with a depth of 3".  And for 2"-5", we recommend calculating at a 7" depth.  It is also recommended to add a weed barrier or GeoTextile first before placing the Riverwash Stone to ensure weeds are restricted.

Stone walkways: If you're thinking of using the 3/8"-5/8" Riverwash Stone, the smaller sized stone may provide more of a sugary feel under your feet.  However, if you want to place outdoor patio furniture on the stone, the smaller size will allow the outdoor patio furniture to slide in to the stone.  Where as the 7/8"-1" Riverwash Stone can provide a more stable feel under the feet but it may not be as effective with outdoor patio furniture.

 

Crushed Stone & Stone Dust

Under patio stones and interlocking: Add 4"-6" of 7/8" crushed stone for a base and then compact it with a hand or machine tamper.  What is more beneficial is compacting the crushed stone in lifts, which means that you would add 2"-3" of 7/8" crushed stone and then compact it.  Then add the next 2"-3" layer of 7/8" crushed stone and compact it.  This will allow for increased compaction.  Then add a 1"-2" layer of stone dust for levelling purposes for the patio stones or interlocking.  The other option is to use 1"-2" of concrete sand instead of stone dust since the concrete sand does not compact, allows for easier levelling, and provides good drainage.

Driveways:  Top up old driveways with 7/8" crushed stone which provides structure and compacts.

Pathways: Use 7/8" crushed stone to create a sturdy path.

Under sheds:  A 4"-6" base of 7/8" crushed stone compacted with a hand or machine tamper.  The other option is to use 7/8" clear stone instead of 7/8" crushed stone.  But first, refer to installation instructions for your shed.

Under hot tub pads: A 4"-6" base of stone dust is recommended.  What is more beneficial is compacting the stone dust in lifts, which means that you would add 2"-3" of stone dust and then compact it.  Then add the next 2"-3" layer of stone dust and compact it.  This will allow for increased compaction.  But first, refer to installation instructions for your hot tub.

Clear Stone

Under sheds:  A 4"-6" base using 7/8" clear stone.  The other option is to use 7/8" crushed stone instead of 7/8" clear stone.

Washed Brick Sand

Used under pool liners:  A 4" base of washed brick sand provides a smooth surface for the pool liner to rest on.

Washed Concrete Sand

Under patio stones & interlocking: Add 4"-6" of 7/8" crushed stone for a base and then compact it with a hand or machine tamper.  What is more beneficial is compacting the stone in lifts, which means that you would add a 2"-3" layer of 7/8" crushed stone and then compact it.  Then add the next 2"-3" layer of 7/8" crushed stone and compact it.  This will allow for increased compaction.  Then add a 1"-2" layer of concrete sand for levelling purposes.  The concrete sand does not compact, allows for easier levelling, and provides good drainage.  The other option is to add a 1"-2" layer of stone dust

Ottawa Playground Sand & Playground Stone

The recommended depth for a safe playground is 12" of Ottawa Playground Sand or Playground Stone.

Adventure Playground Mulch

The recommended depth for a safe playground is 12″ of compacted Adventure Playground Mulch. It is best to compact the playground mulch in lifts which means adding a 3″-4″ layer and then compacting it with a hand or machine tamper, followed by another layer of 3″-4″, and so on. Therefore, due to compaction it is recommended to add an additional 20% to the calculated volume.
