The application of pine bark is much broader than how it is used by local gardeners. In Western Europe and America, it has long been used under fruit trees, raspberry, blueberry, elderberry plantations, and even in open-field vegetable cultivation, such as under tomatoes and peppers. Its use is especially worth considering for water-demanding plants.

Besides potentially reducing watering needs by 30-50%, it almost eliminates the need for weeding. By using pine bark, you can suppress weeds, block harmful sunlight, thus protecting the plants' upper roots. Various materials can function as ground cover, but some types can be harmful to fruit trees, such as hay, straw, biodegradable plastic, fabric, and other mulches. Pine bark has been proven to be a good ground cover, and research has shown that it effectively reduces weed spread for 1-3 years, depending on its depth of application.

The minimally recommended depth is 6 cm. This is sufficient to block harmful UV rays and prevent weed growth.

PINE BARK AS GROUND COVER:
THE BEST THING THAT CAN HAPPEN TO YOUR GARDEN DURING DROUGHT

Decorative gravel and paving stones may be trendy, but they are not suitable for gardens and plants. In artificial, all-stone environments, plants will suffer and may even burn out.

Gravel and stone heat up significantly and retain heat. They become very hot during the day and continue to radiate heat at night. Decorative gravel that weeds will thrive in is more work than it’s worth. Pine bark, however, provides shade to plant roots, prevents moisture from evaporating, and is the best natural weed growth inhibitor.
