Mulching is one of the best things you can do for your garden that is often overlooked. Mulching is the act of placing a protective barrier around your plants and over your bare soil. This protective barrier can be made up of a variety of decomposing organic materials like bark, pine needles, wood chips, and straw, just to name a few. Here are five benefits to using Blue Cube Premium Mulch:

Weed Control

You can limit the amount of weeds that spring up in the open spaces of your garden by using mulch. It acts as a barrier, limiting the amount of sunlight that can find its way to the weeds. Putting down a three-inch thick layer of mulch around your garden is enough to handle all but the most stubborn weeds.

Moisture Retention

When you cover your garden with Blue Cube Premium Mulch, it absorbs water and helps limit evaporation. Moisture retention, especially during the hot dry summer will help your plants stay healthy. You will need less water in order to keep your garden up, so your water bill will go down along with reducing the impact on the city’s reserves.

Easy Mess-Free Delivery

Blue Cube simplifies clean-up, reduces heavy lifting, and is easy to store and use throughout the growing season. It will be delivered it to you, when you want it, where you want it and most importantly with no mess. Blue Cubes are available in two sizes: the big bag (1 cubic yard) and the mini bag (3/4 cubic yard).

Pest Control

Blue Cube Premium Mulch can help deter those annoying bugs that munch away at your plants. When mulch breaks down, your soil quality improves and a number of good bacteria, insects and fungi get released naturally into your garden. These helpful pests help control the amount of harmful, plant-damaging bugs looking to infest your garden.

Garden Polish

Mulch can give a garden a finished look by filling in the empty spaces while being one of the easiest fillers to maintain. Grass, groundcovers and other fillers take extensive care, such as mowing and watering, and compete for resources with your garden plants. Mulch is easy to care for and never competes with your other plants.
