Type this in once already but then it disappeared, so appologies if it
duplicates.


I would much now with one proviso. And that is - Do not mulch frozen
ground. If the ground is frozen then your mulch will act as a nice
insulator and keep it frozen for longer.
Out of interest - what type of mulch do you intend to use?

Well rotted compost is best for mulching

Research in Australia found that Coco Bark and other non rotted mulches etc
pour resins into the soil making it impervious to water

If the material has decomposed during normal composting then theres no
damage to the soil
