The “Weed Recede Weed Suppression System” will perform much better when starting with a clean bed.​

When your mulch beds border creeping grasses such as Bermuda grass, or St. Augustine grass etc., we recommend that you edge your bed lines with a blade edger to help minimize grass/weed encroachment. This process should be repeated throughout the season as often as is necessary to stop creeping grasses.

You should see a reduction in weed pressure in your landscape beds. However, in certain climates, it may be necessary to still pull or treat weeds with a non-selective herbicide such as Round-up® or Finale®. However, you should see reduced time, effort, and chemical use to manage the weeds in your beds during the season.

How to use The “Weed Recede® Weed Suppression System

First, estimate how many bags of “Weed Recede” you will need. You can use an estimated 8 square feet of coverage for each bag of “Weed Recede Disappearing Mulch Bags” (4″overlap”).  
Example: 240 sq. feet divided by 8 sq. feet = 30 “Weed Recede” Weed Suppression Mulch Bags.

After bed is weeded and cleaned, place “Weed Recede” Weed Suppression Mulch Bag flat in the bed and use the easy opening perforation system to open.  Open bag flat and place the  bag in bed where you want it. Push mulch over bag to cover.

​​Leave a 4″ or so overlap over each bag so as to improve weed control. Repeat….new bag should be place 4″over previously placed bag. 

At  8 square feet, mulch will cover approximately 2” + deep. Since the bag suppresses weeds, your landscape may require less mulch depth. ..which is good news for your plants, ….and your wallet!

For tree rings and curves or unusual shapes, you can tear/cut/fold and/or place pieces of the bag and then place mulch on top of the torn or cut pieces. You can also fold the bag under in places in order to achieve unusual shapes such as tree rings.
