Summer residents often use wood chips in the country. This is understandable: they loosen the soil, make it airy. A plant can not answer whether they need a habitat. Many of them just suffer in silence.

fresh sawdust as soil is totally unacceptable!

  • Firstly, they are very oxidize soil. A acidic environment is not suitable for all plants.
  • Secondly, they reduce the nitrogen content in the soil. In this element, especially in the first half of the summer, need absolutely all the vegetation.

Before you make these conclusions, I have done a lot of mistakes in his craft Ogorodny incorrectly applied the natural material on the site.

To make the soil fit only rotted sawdust. Fresh I refer to the compost pile, where they are mixed with plant residues, cut grass and other waste safely pereprevayut, converting the contents into a loose mass.

Sawdust in conjunction with fresh dung, too, have to wait a certain time before they become useful for the garden.

  • To protect their perennial shrubs from frost, I used to construct a shelter from sawdust. I think that this mulch will only benefit. How wrong I was! In the spring of the frozen mass in the ice layer forms a shell, which prevented thawed soil at the base of the bushes.

My favorite roses from such "care" barely recovered, because the pulp has absorbed all the nitrogen and other useful minerals from the earth, made her exhausted.
  • I did not begin to apply a mulch in late spring and early summer, because the dense layer prevented the evaporation of excess moisture. As a result, the roots of young plants just rot from excess liquid.
  • * Refused to use sawdust from coniferous trees. In them a lot of resin, and a ground like that? Pro chip chipboard and other wood-based panels in general should forget gardeners. In addition to the resin they contain a lot of chemicals.
  • Gone my interest in fine sawdust. They mingled with the earth, form lumps, compressed, become compressed and form a crust. Plants are not fed enough oxygen to "breathe."

To loosen the soil use is only (!) Rotted sawdust dark brown. Ready for use in the garden wood material will be at least three years.
