How to use ↓

There are two main ways to use garden leaf mold: mixing it with the basic soil as a soil conditioner, and spreading it on the surface as a mulching material. When mixing with soil, use a ratio of 2 parts soil to 1 part leaf mold as a base, and adjust the amount according to the plant's growing environment. As a mulching material, spreading it about 3-4 cm thick on the soil surface provides effects such as heat and moisture retention, weed suppression, and prevention of pathogen dispersal.
When mixing with soil (soil improvement)
Purpose:
To balance drainage, water retention, and aeration, soften the soil, and activate microorganisms.
Mixing example:
Basic soil: Mix basic soil and leaf mold in a 2:1 ratio (2 parts soil: 1 part leaf mold).
Improving garden and flower bed soil: Mix deeply into the soil using a hoe or tiller, at a rate of approximately 3-5 kg per square meter.
Points:
Be careful not to add too much leaf mold, as it can make roots unstable or cause root rot.
Use only fermented and fully ripened leaf mold, as immature leaf mold can deplete nutrients in the soil (nitrogen starvation).
After mixing, it is recommended to let the soil settle for about 2 weeks to 1 month before planting.
When spreading on the soil surface (mulching)
Shipped highly compressed.
Purpose:
Heat and moisture retention, prevention of drying, suppression of weed growth, prevention of pathogen dispersal.
Method:
Spread a layer of about 3-4 cm thick on the soil surface around the base of the plants.
Points:
In winter, it maintains an appropriate soil temperature with its heat and insulation effects, and in summer, it suppresses drying and rising ground temperatures.
It also prevents rainwater mixed with pathogens from directly hitting the plants.
