Q: How many bags of mulch is one yard?

• <div><p>Each bag of mulch includes 2 cubic feet of mulch. And since a cubic yard is about 27 cubic feet of materials, you'll need 14 bags of mulch to have enough to cover a cubic yard. The right amount of mulch for your yard, however, depends on the depth of the mulch, the type of mulch you choose, and your desired look. </p></div>

Q: Can you lay pea gravel directly on dirt?

• <div><p>Yes, you can lay pea gravel directly on the dirt. First, dig a trench 2 to 6 inches deep the length and width of the area you want to cover. Plants and weeds will eventually grow through the pea gravel if you don&rsquo;t lay down landscaping cloth.</p></div>

Q: How much does a 40-pound bag of topsoil cover?

• <div><p>A 40-pound bag of topsoil covers 0.76 cubic feet, enough for 4.5 square feet with a 2-inch depth or 36 square feet with a .25-inch depth, such as topdressing a standard garden bed. If you want 2 inches of fresh topsoil for your 36-square-foot garden bed, you&rsquo;ll need eight 40-pound bags. </p></div>

Q: What does sand do?

• <div><p>Sand is a common sublayer for hardscape features like driveways, paver patios, and more. Most projects that involve sand require a 1-inch layer to promote evenness, drainage, and weight distribution. For further drainage, most projects have a 6-inch minimum layer of gravel beneath the sand. </p><p> </p></div>

Q: What should I put down before landscaping rock?

• <div><p>Before you begin landscaping with rocks, put down a weed barrier or landscape fabric to prevent pesky weeds from poking through. </p></div>
