Our mulch doesn’t have a manure smell, rather has an ammonia smell that dissipates quickly when spread. Left standing outside this will dissipate naturally in around 24 – 48 hours depending on the weather conditions.

Important information

When applying our Mulch this spring, we would strongly recommend leaving a space around your young or tender plants. This will avoid any chance of burning issues. This happens due to the ammonia content. This will dissipate after around 24 hours being outside.

Caution do not store or use our fresh Soil Improving Mulch in enclosed places (greenhouses, polytunnels, garages, cold frames and cloches).

Good morning, I received my delivery this morning, and I just wanted to say thank you for getting it to us before Friday as requested. Also what a pleasure Kevin was to deal with when he delivered it. He went out of his way to make sure the bags were dropped in exactly the required place for us. You are a very nice company to deal with and it has been a pleasure buying from you. I hope our garden enjoys your product now!
