Hemp Mulch in the garden
When you apply Hemp Mulch to your project here are some useful tips to get full use of your hemp mulch
1) You must thoroughly and completely water in the hemp mulch. This will activate the natural absorbing fibre hemp has.
2) Once you super saturate the Hemp Mulch (we fill&pre soak in a wheel barrow) and water has been absorbed, blend with your choice of potting soil.
3) After you have added your plants, apply the remainder of the wet mulch as a finishing topper around the plants, or in your garden rows.
4) The formation of your hemp mat will begin. This will hold your hemp mulch in place.
The water acts as the binder to form the hemp “mat”. When water is applied the little hemp fibres form together with the hemp hurd to create the hemp mat, a carpet for your soil!
