Benefit of Tree Mulching

Just Trees offers a tree mulching service and this includes the supply a variety of small and large wood chips in Perth. The benefits to our wood chips include:

  • With wood chips you can mulch branches and foliage as a low-cost nutrient rich compost for healthy trees and plants. Tree mulching slowly decomposes as organic matter and helps loosen compressed or sandy soil.

How We Do Tree Mulching Service

So now we have gone through the benefits, let’s look at tool mulching process and how long it takes. The wood chips Perth is created from stump grinding, tree removal or pruning.

The mulching process involves spreading a 50 to 75 mm layer of mulch over a metre of dry ground.  Any less and you could end up with weeds being able to penetrate the soil and too much and you could end up with water struggling to get through.

Next, mix a little dirt moistening representative into 9 litres of water as well as pour over your compost.

Mulching shouldn’t take too long but as natural composts naturally breaks down, you need to regularly examine and keep on top of maintenance. When you first lay down the mulch and pour dirt moistening over your compost, you will need to leave the mulch for 1-2 hrs.

Check to see if the top soil and compost is completely dry but the dirt is wet to a minimum of 10cm deep.

Finally do not place the mulch too snugly around the stems of plants, shrubs or trees, as this can cause them to establish collar rot where the stem tissue is covered.
