Abstract/Contents:Presents a study to test the effectiveness of mulch as weed control. Results include that "the application of pre-emergent herbicide-treated bark nuggets resulted in increased efficacy in 1998...and 2000...compared to the herbicides or mulches applied alone...the herbicide-treated Douglas fir represented four of the six most efficacious treatments in 2000 at 130 DAT...in 1998 and 2000, the herbicide-treated mulches were superior in reducing phytotoxicity, increasing efficacy and extending efficacy." Also discusses other recent studies of mulches and their findings.
