Hello

After watching Rmplmnz Garden Tour Video and seeing what looks like mulch or cypress shavings he used to make a floor under his nanna and other plants if wood chips would be OK/beneficial/harmful ?

I have two mounds of wood chips that I received from a local tree service approximately 5 months ago. The chips are from various type of native La trees. Pine, Oak, Hickory etc.

Where I placed the chipped material around some of my large live oak trees the chips seem to be breaking down.

Was wondering if it would be ok to place between and around my plants to control grass and weeds and eventually feed my banana plants?

Thanks in advance for your comments...
