    Given the calorific value of sugar, i would guess timber gathered in spring first flush would be highest calorific value?

    when I studied all the lit i could find on the subject of mulch I learned the best was Cherry and hawthorn chip (research by Dr Glyn percival) and decided that mixing this with a third grass clippings or green manure using clover would produce a good balance:thumbup1: If I was asked to mulch a tree for instance my preferred method would be cardboard then grass or green manure with hawthorn/cherry or the tree species it was applied to then a compost tea added periodically with a small dose of mollases:thumbup1:
