A healthy garden doesn’t happen by accident. Instead it takes a combination of careful planning and dedication. Years of these two ingredients will finally bring about a result you’ll be satisfied with and eager to show off. That being said, if you don’t start your garden off on the right foot, it just won’t stand a chance.
One very important asset every garden needs is mulch. It’s just as important as the very soil your plants grow out from. Without mulch, Mississauga gardens would either lose their soil or quickly see it corrupted. As a result, your garden will die out and you’ll have wasted a lot of money with no results.
Mulch goes over the top of your soil, holding in the valuable water and nutrients below it. Without mulch, rain and wind could strip these things away, starving your garden of vital ingredients it needs to thrive. It also protects the water from evaporating on sunny days. While sun generally benefits plants, it can work against your garden if it begins pulling moisture from it.
Mulch also suppresses weed growth, meaning you’ll have less manual work to do down the line, while still getting healthy plants.
Despite how important Mississauga mulch is, you may be surprised that it’s actually made from a motley crew of materials. Most of it is compost, leaves, grass clippings and wood chips. However, many forms are also made with newspaper, rocks and even shredded tires.
