minus-square@MonkderVierte@lemmy.mllinkfedilink27•10 months ago plastic film used as mulch in agriculture Wtf. Where and why?!
minus-square@SuperCub@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink68•edit-210 months agoIt’s the black plastic bag material that people used to cover their soil and poke holes through for their crops. I never thought it was called plastic mulch though.
minus-square@Revan343@lemmy.calinkfedilink22•10 months agoIt serves the same purpose as actual mulch, which is blocking out weeds
minus-square@SuperCub@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink4•10 months agoYes, but mulch has the meaning of ground up wood, so I think most people would think it was ground up plastics.
