The more mulch piled on, the greater the moisture retention. Compost can be complimented with pea straw and other light coloured mulches in the summer. Most gardeners prefer the dark appearance of the compost: they just mulch with compost!
Looking for a raised garden bed for your veggies and other plants or even fertilisers or worm farms? SA Composters has a range of products to compliment our organic product range. Please click on the images above for further information about these products. (Coming Soon)
