Bubble Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Newbie here again! I’ve just had a big builders bag of wood chip delivered from a local timber company. I checked it was natural and hardwood and no leaves but forget to check the size. Now that I’ve got it I can see that there are quite big bits in it. Does it matter? Obviously will take out the really huge bits but wondering about whether really has to be between 5mm to 30mm as I’ve seen advertised? It’s to go in the classic run and around it. Photo to show area it’s going in. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullethunter Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 I’m sure it’ll be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyRoo Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 The woodchip we use comes in about 2-inch (ish) lumps if that helps. They have no problem with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
