Compo Organic Wood Chips, 60 Litre

These wood chips are made of debarked, untreated softwood. In a raised bed, the wood chips ensure a well-ventilated base layer. As a mulch layer, they regulate the heat and moisture balance of the soil, and are also ideal when you need a creative covering for garden beds and paths.

Use as a base filling for the raised bed:

• Before setting up and filling the raised bed, a vole mesh should be placed between the soil and the raised bed floor to prevent rodents and other pests from accessing the soil. To protect the wooden walls of the raised bed from rotting, you can cover the inner walls with film. Once the preparations have been completed, evenly fill the raised bed with COMPO BIO wood chips. Always press the wood chips down when filling in order to ensure good stability and optimal ventilation of the base layer. The base layer with COMPO BIO wood chips should be 20-30cm high or a maximum of one third of the total height of the raised bed.

• If COMPO BIO wood chips are used as mulch material to protect the soil or for nitrogenous fertilisation, clear the area of weeds before use. Spread the COMPO BIO wood chips on borders and garden beds in a 4-6cm thick layer, increase the layer to approx. 10cm on garden paths due to wear.
