Why Rubber Mulch
.Rubberific Mulch will hold moisture for your plants by keeping it in the soil. Since rubber is permeable, moisture will travel directly through it to the soil. Rubberific Mulch then acts as an insulator between the sun/heat and the soil. Wood mulch actually absorbs the majority of the moisture before it reaches the soil.
.Rubberific Mulch retains ground moisture for optimal plant growth, whereas wood mulch robs the plants of water. Also, wood mulch can generate heat and acids that can burn your plants roots.
.While Rubberific Mulch won’t decompose, any amount that works its way into the ground will only serve to aerate the soil.
.Rubberific Mulch is completely non-toxic and will not leach any harmful toxins.
.Rubberific Mulch is great for preventing weed growth, because of the fact that most weeds germinate in wood mulch itself. The rubber will only allow weeds to germinate in the soil, which usually doesn’t happen because the sun has a tough time reaching the dirt. It is recommended that a landscaping fabric be used to eliminate weeds completely. If a weed control substance is preferred, this could be sprayed directly over Rubberific Mulch without the worry of affecting its colour.
