I have never used it, but understood from research and speaking to others that the recycled rubber is a good choice. However, your comments make a good point and I'll reconsider it an an organic mulch option. Thanks for the info. Hi Nova,

Thank you for pointing that out reg. the negative effects of rubber mulch. I have never used it, but understood from research and speaking to others that the recycled rubber is a good choice. However, your comments make a good point and I’ll reconsider it an an organic mulch option. Thanks for the info.

It's not necessarily environmental because old rubber tires leach zinc into the soil and can cause imbalance in the level of the soil's alkalinity. And rubber mulch will break down but it won't really add any good to the soil. It's simply not an organic matter. If you were into organic gardening, I’d say skip the rubber mulch.
