Do weeds grow through rubber mulch?

• <div><p>Weeds can grow through rubber mulch, but it depends on if you removed all the weeds in your garden beforehand. Weeds already in the soil can grow even when using rubber mulch. However, that doesn’t mean that your garden will be littered with rubber and weeds, but it does mean that the occasional weed might still pop up. Another way you can increase your weed suppression is by using landscape fabric as a second layer. </p></div>

What kind of maintenance does a gravel driveway require?

• <div><p>Because gravel moves, it requires different maintenance than asphalt or concrete. Here are a few maintenance tips for your gravel driveway. Every few years (or as often as needed):</p><ul><li><p>Grade and level your driveway</p></li><li><p>Rake to fill holes and ruts</p></li><li><p>Compact any refilled potholes</p></li><li><p>Remove weeds with herbicide or by hand</p></li><li><p>Spray it with water to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-ways-reduce-dust-your-new-gravel-driveway.htm">reduce the amount of dust</a> kicked up</p></li><li><p>Avoid using a snowplow during winter months</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Should you remove old mulch before putting down new mulch?

• <div><p>Mulch is made from natural materials, which will break down and add nutrients to your soil for better plant and soil health, so removing old mulch is unnecessary before putting down new mulch. However, if you live in a particularly moist area, it’s possible that the old mulch will harbor fungus or mold, which can hurt plant health. If you notice these issues, you might want to consider removing the old mulch first. Otherwise, save time and money by placing new mulch right over the old mulch.</p></div>

Q: How tall should mulch be around trees?

• <div><p>How tall your mulch should be around your tree depends on the type of mulch you use, but aim for 3 to 4 inches as a rule of thumb. You&rsquo;ll want to avoid simply piling it up in hopes of offering additional benefits to your tree. Volcano mulching is the infamous term for piling way too much mulch against the stem of your tree. This could actually kill your tree or severely harm it, as your tree trunk needs space to breathe without too much moisture. </p></div>

Q: Should I put topsoil over grass seed?

• <div><p>You shouldn&rsquo;t put topsoil over new grass seed. Even though it may seem like this would increase soil contact and help the seeds grow, adding more soil overtop of planted grass seed will only make it harder for water and oxygen to reach the grass seeds. If you want to protect the grass seeds, consider adding a thin layer of organic matter, such as straw or hay.</p></div>
