Acquiring a substantial quantity of organic or inorganic ground cover material presents an opportunity to potentially reduce expenses associated with landscaping and gardening. Furthermore, the strategic application of such materials can contribute to the inhibition of unwanted vegetation proliferation within cultivated areas.
The practice offers several advantages, including a potential reduction in the overall cost of horticultural supplies when compared to purchasing smaller, pre-packaged quantities. Historically, utilizing readily available organic matter as ground cover has been a common practice in agriculture and horticulture to conserve moisture, regulate soil temperature, and minimize the need for manual weeding or herbicide application. This approach can lead to considerable savings of both time and resources.
