Hi. I keep getting grass sprouting in the mulch in my gardens. I am constantly pulling these sprouts but sometimes I lose the battle and the grass takes over. How can I stop this from getting out of control?
Thank you.

Expert Response
Was the soil clean of grass and other plants when you put the mulch down? If not, that is what you are seeing. Mulch alone with not smother grass.
