1 Comment To "Using Cedar Mulch"

The cedar mulch should be fine. However, you should have a soil analysis done beforehand, so you have a general idea of what kind of soil you have. Cedar mulch does acidify the soil some, but slightly acidic soil won’t harm most plants. If you’re worried about the acidifying effect, add some limestone to the mix, or sprinkle some on top of the mulch.
