Will dyed mulch stain my driveway?

It is possilbe that dyed mulch will stain concrete. Staining is usually temporary and occurs mostly when mulch gets wet from rain or another water source. If you are concerned about staining it is best to put a tarp down before delivery and to keep the mulch dry while it is on your driveway.

Can I water my plants right after spreading my mulch?

It is best to wait 24 hours before watering especially when using dyed mulch products. Dyed mulch may need this additional time period for the dye to dry after spreading.

What is that yellow "growth" on top of my mulch?

Sometimes a fungus grows on top of mulch, especially during hot and humid summer weather. The most common one is yellowish in color and often looks like an animal has become sick in your mulch. This is an airborne spore and should be carefully removed from the area. Spraying the ground underneath with a solution of one part bleach to four parts water may help it from spreading. It is not harmful, just a result of certain environmental factors.

Do you have current soil tests for your soils?

Yes, we have soil tests for most of our soil products available upon request.

I am installing a new lawn and my soil isn't so great. Why should I spend the money to amend it before planting?

A higher quality soil will produce a healthier lawn which will require less fertilizer to look better. Using less fertilizer offers both cost and environmental benefits.
