Some plants tested yielding bigger crops with certain kinds of mulch (like tomato plants with red mulch and pepper plants with any kind of mulch - because of their shallow roots).
Typical organic mulches you can use in your garden are:
- straw
- hay
- layered newspaper covered with straw or hay
- grass clippings (from the chemical-free lawns)
- shredded or chipped wood mulches
- shredded dry leaves
- cocoa fiber
- pine needles
- carton (see the photo)
