I wanted to get others opinions on this...

I was in Lowe's last weekend and I found something that they are calling a "synthetic mulch". It is actually recylced tires that have been shredded and bound together. You can lay it around your trees and plants and supposedly water and nutrients pass through but it acts as a barrier to weeds and grass. Does anyone know more about it ?

I wouldn't use it. I don't know if it's harmful although it suspect it is. My belief is; if it doesn't benefit & improve the life in the soil, don't use it!

I can imagine no possible benefit to "synthetic mulch" except that it lasts forever and ever and ever....

"synthetic" belongs in your cars engine.
