Puitkiudplaadid

Puitkiudplaadid, also known as wood chip mulch, are a type of organic mulch made from the wood chips of trees and shrubs. They are commonly used in landscaping and gardening to improve soil health, retain moisture, and suppress weeds. Wood chip mulch is available in various sizes, ranging from fine to coarse, and can be made from different types of wood, including hardwoods and softwoods. It is an eco-friendly option as it is a byproduct of wood processing and can be recycled or composted after use. When applied correctly, wood chip mulch can help regulate soil temperature, prevent erosion, and promote the growth of beneficial microorganisms. However, it may not be suitable for all plants, particularly those with shallow root systems, as it can smother them if not properly managed. Proper application involves spreading a 2-3 inch layer of mulch around plants, ensuring it does not touch the plant stems to prevent rot. Regular maintenance, such as replenishing the mulch as it breaks down, is necessary to maintain its benefits.
