Average leaf area of cauliflower grown in different mulches Figure 4, showed the most beneficial mulches in terms of leaf area of the cauliflower were the synthetic Black Plastic, and the organic Coffee Hull and wood chips. The largest leaf area varied from the smallest leaf area by 3952.95 cm2. The synthetic mulches did not seem to follow any pattern in terms of leaf area.
