  Mulch Of Choice

Lots of people nowadays are wacko for mulcho...and what is the disgusting appeal that red mulch give...i mean come on...its just ground up pallets (at least around here it is). Dark Hardwood all the way!

  Mulch Of Choice

why am i a kubota chick grinder? well..i go for men that have kubotas...its my thing...and besides what does that have to do with mulch.
I have traveled to the south and it seems that all mulching with pine needles does is make the soil even more acidic, what scence does that make? Derrr!

its nice to know there is a kubotaguy out there too...i guess everyone has a match...
Yes, dark hardwood is totally the way to go, even the cypress is unreliable sometimes...but remember, there are great things you can do with a tub grinder and some perserverance...if your really that anti red mulch.

The only concern i have is that all this red dyed mulch is toxic to animals and i can only imagine what it will end op doing to plants. We may be in trouble in a couple years with some freakish plants that got genetically altered due to a wicked dye used in the mulch. Down with Red Mulch

yeah, i know whenever i want to go cover my ground, sludge is the first thing i think of to use. Hey, and remember when it was cool to mulch your plants in with pea gravel?

that is the stupidest thing i have ever heard of in my life. I'm guessing it doesn't retain any water or break down into organic matter for the soil. Hey honey, lets go chop up those old tires and throw them in the yard since the garbage man won't take them. Stupid...i guess i like the red stuff more than that

but yeah, whats the difference between that and throwing some old newpapers down..actually that would be more benificial to the plant. I guess it would be good for large commercial accounts, but not for the regular around the house...i wouldn't think. Those big mulch blowers are really the way to go, cuts time incredibly

yeah, i hear ya bro...or those cocoa shells, those stupid things are terrible. You cannot do anything around them. I guess these rubber dingies aren't so bad. And those rocks are terrible, and if you ever have to match up old stones with new stones in new beds its almost impossible.

No harm no foul.
