Garden Time™ 50L Water Saving Mulch Value Pack
Keep moisture where your plants need it during hot, dry weather with Daltons Garden Time Water Saving Mulch. This bark-based mulch is boosted with coir fibre to help retain moisture and nutrients in the soil.
DID YOU KNOW? Mulch also provides a barrier against soil nutrient loss/leaching, especially during heavy rain. It absorbs extra water and then gradually releases it back into the soil at a more regulated rate.
Uses
- For use in garden beds, raised beds and pots, around flowers, vegetables, trees and shrubs.
Product Features
- Helps reduce moisture loss and the need for frequent watering.
- Maintains more even soil temperatures.
- Protects plant roots and suppresses weed growth.
How to use
Garden Beds, Vegetables, Trees and Shrubs
Remove any weeds and water the soil thoroughly before you start. Spread Garden Time Water Saving Mulch evenly around your plants to the recommended depth, keeping it clear of plant stems and trunks. Water again afterwards to help settle the mulch.
Pots and Containers
Water the potting mix well, then spread an even layer of mulch over the top, keeping it clear of plant stems.
Coverage Guide
One 50L bag covers 1m² at 40mm deep, or ½m² at 80mm deep.
Topping Up
Mulch naturally breaks down over time, so reapply as needed to keep it at the right depth.
Tips and know how
For the best results, mulch in spring while the soil is still moist, so the moisture is locked in before summer.
This mulch is made from natural organic materials, including composted pine bark, and contains living micro-organisms. Keep it moist when handling, wear gloves (and a particulate mask if it's dusty) and wash your hands straight after use. Please read the health warning on the bag before opening.
