Q. What are the use of wood chips?

Answer

Raised beds constructed using the lasagna method can benefit from the addition of wood chips. This could be the perfect option for new low-cost growth regions because it is a dense carbon-rich substance that is often readily available in pretty big amounts. There's a chance it is not establishing any additional cultivable territory. However despite appearances using wood chip as mulch is not always a simple task. Nitrogen is scarce in wood chips. Therefore the microbes that use the low-nitrogen organic matter as food (by decomposing it) must find another source of nitrogen. Wood chip manufactured from a hardwood such as oak will be different in quality from wood chip made from a softwood such as pine.
