Strulch Mineralised Straw Garden Mulch 9kg 2 Pack

A mineralised straw mulch, Strulch is the environmentally friendly and efficient way of applying a mulch to your plants. Used by professionals, Strulch is light and easy to use, and being made from renewably sourced wheat straw it’s a simple way to garden organically. Manufactured in Britain using a new preservation technique, naturally occurring soil minerals are used to stabilise and condition milled straw. This ensures that nutrients are released into the soil not taken from it - so plants remain happy and healthy. Another benefit is that the straw remains attractive for up to 2 years, giving a much more visually appealing finish to your garden, with a rustic, earthy-brown colour which will darken with age. Reducing the need for watering and weeding, Strulch suppresses weeds by up to 95% and prevents moisture loss by evaporation from the soil. It's also great for pest control as slugs and snails dislike the texture so will tend to stay away, while added minerals act as an extra deterrent. With a neutral pH, Strulch is ideal for use around the garden and is organically certified - use it in borders and pots, raised beds and around fruit and veg and in the kitchen garden. Strulch can also be incorporated into compost or soil to improve soil structure. Supplied as 2 x 9kg bag.
