    I’d probably spray, rake the mulch back and forth and then do another application to get the most depth. Maybe that’s a waste

      I think that's a great idea, especially in areas where there is some kind of traffic through the mulch. If the mulch is undisturbed, it looks good, though. Thanks for the comment!

    I did this last year with a similar product and it worked great. Little touch up this spring and its looking good for another year.

      It definitely works! We had to replace our mulch this year because it was broken down, but we moved the old mulch to our wooded garden. We'll be using the dye back there soon (since it's all been turned over).

    I just bought 10 bags of mulch at Lowe’s for one dollar each because they were broken bags 90 and 100% full.. And I do that three or four times in the early spring when people are getting it in high demand.

    It has been almost a year. Can you please post an update picture/video? I'm curious how the dye holds up after almost a year.

      Once it stops raining here and things dry out a bit, we're planning to get some pictures or video. Thanks for the comment and we'll see what we can do!

      @@southbridgeforestHOA The mulch has since been replaced. If applied in the Spring, this mulch dye definitely works through the summer and fall with minimal fading. If the mulch has been overturned in areas, it can easily be touched up. I would honestly say it's worth the money and allows you to skip a season of replacing mulch.

    What type of sprayer? Did it get plugged up a lot?

    What are those shrubs in the mulch area? They're beautiful!

  • @thatsnice99
    @thatsnice99 6 месяцев назад +1

    Why take out the old mulch? It decomposes. And if it doesn’t decompose, just put a thin layer of new mulch over it just sprinkle it over the top.

    • @jkprojectsnstuff697
      @jkprojectsnstuff697  6 месяцев назад

      Eventually mulch is broken down into basically mud/dirt. When it gets broken down like this, weeds can thrive. Every now and then, I believe it's a good idea to have a whole, new, fresh batch of mulch. Mulch dye works great to make things look nice again, though.

      @@jkprojectsnstuff697 interesting because I didn’t see one weed in that bed.
      Also to build up garden beds I will rake back the mulch, place chopped up yard waste and cover it back up with mulch and put a thing layer of broken bag mulch for $1 a bag. Zero weeds.

    That sprayer is hindering the process. Need a backpack sprayer with fan tip for accuracy a dependable saturation.
