Dayton experiences about 113 days a year below 32 degrees Fahrenheit. The ground freezes deep and long, which shortens the workable season for spreading mulch. The freeze season is long here, which shortens the window for spreading and grading to late spring through fall.

The area gets about 8 inches of snow annually, and plowing can disturb loose mulch if the surface is not settled. Soils mapped in the Dayton area are commonly well drained, so a layer of mulch helps retain moisture during dry summer months.
