Black Plastic Mulch
Finds Favor For Use
On Vegetable Crops
Looking for a way to get out
of hoeing weeds in your garden
this summer? Try using black
plastic mulch, suggests R Ralph
Clark, extension horticulturist at
Oregon State college.
Mulching using a layer of
sawdust, straw, grass clippings,
or other material to cover the
soil has proven quite helpfil in
controlling weeds in the past.
And something new and very
effective for this purpose is black
polyethylene plastic film, Clark

In addition to helping keep
weeds out of garden rows, the
black plastic also lowers water
losses from the soil so that it's
often possible to use fewer irri
gations or sprinklings on gard
en crops. Tests at the OSC agri
cultural experiment station and
the USDA research center at
Beltsville, Md, also indicated
that vegetable crops mulched
with the black plastic in 1957
arpw faster and larger, and
yielded more, than plants with
out mulch.
The black polyethylene plast
ic film is available in rolls at
most garden and hardware stor
es, Clark said. The material
comes in several thicknesses,
and may be used for several
years if handled carefully. This

The bulletin gives information
on width and thickness of plastic
to use on various vegetable crops

apply the plastic film, and lists
hints on how to manage gard

is used.
Oregon residents can get a
