How to use mulch after garden shredder?
Large branches and stems of shrubs take up space on the site, block the compost pits, and burning them is too long and useless process, which is also prohibited in a number of regions of our country. Chopper garden waste not only helps to quickly recycle cut branches, but also produces valuable chips, which will still be useful in a private courtyard.
Woodworkers know that shredded wood chips are a useful and expensive material that can be reused in several ways.

Methods for using crushed chips
Experts note that there are at least five options for using tree branches that have been crumbled with a garden shredder. And these are not only the possibilities of decorating the site, but also useful additions for agricultural crops.
- Mulching. Wood is great for mulching soil around plantings. It is not inferior in quality to sawdust or shavings, which are used more often. In addition, wood chips not only protect the ridges from drying out, retaining moisture, but also act as a decorative component of neat and well-groomed flower beds. Rotting, such mulch turns into humus, carries nutrients to the soil and directly to the planted plants.
- Wood concrete production. With the rise in prices for building materials, as well as the emergence of a large number of artificial components, there is a demand for boards made of wood filler and chemicals that work connecting links. This material is suitable for the construction of low-rise buildings with wood-board floors.
- Chip-cement slabs. Additional processing allows you to create a strong insulating layer, which is laid as a heat-insulating layer.
- Furnace fuel. Can be used in its original form, but this will lead to a difference in combustion. In this case, not every tree species is suitable due to size, moisture and quality. It is much more convenient to form pellets from wood chips and heat the stove with solid compressed material, knowing that it is completely natural.
- For smoking food. Fish, meat and other food supplies get a unique taste if they are smoked. In addition, conservation occurs due to the release of a large amount of carbon monoxide and the burning of resins and oils. With this use, it is important to choose the right chip size and wood species, otherwise the product may be damaged.
- Infusion of alcoholic beverages. Even in ancient times, alcohol was insisted on wood chips, as a result, it changes its taste, color and aroma. This is due to the high content of free sugars and resins in the wood. They react actively and change the properties of the alcoholic beverage. The procedure is equivalent to infusion in wooden barrels.
