mulching
This term functions primarily as a gerund or a mass noun, referring to both the action of applying material and the material itself. When describing the layer of substance on the ground, it is treated as an uncountable noun, meaning it does not typically have a plural form in standard horticultural contexts.
As an adjective, it serves as a classifier to describe tools or techniques specifically designed for this gardening process. It is distinct from the base noun "mulch," which refers to the substance itself, whereas "mulching" emphasizes the application or the state of being covered.
