a day agoCrazy part is ALL the new homes built here in South Carolina they put pine straw and about 95% owners it’s the first thing to be removed myself included. But i just did it because someone told me too. Never really asked why. Now i have black mulch that doesnt block weeds well. Starting to second guess stuff
13 days agoPine straw is nice when you first put it down, but the sun bleaches it pretty quick, and it doesn’t look very golden after just a short amount of time. I’m not a fan
15 days agoNot sure it's worth it. I see a lot of cons to this. Fire hazard, constant sweeping/blowing back in place. Place for rodents or pests to make a home, once it starts to break down it will look bad (if it doesn't already). Very little to no upside to this.
