    Is it okay to use dead cedar clippings and old brown fallout from cedar hedges as a mulch? For everything including roses and the perennials? Is it acidic?

    Hi Sunny,

    As long as the clippings and fallout weren't diseased they should be no problem. They would be on the acid side being a conifer.

    what you do is you get any mulch left from onions carrots lettuce etc. and mix it up make sure you wash it down with water so that it stays wet and moist you need alot of slime in there to keep it wet and moist if you allow fungas to grow well thats normal when you got fungas thats a good sign means its moist and add some worms in there to break it down.
