Answers: Yes, you can mulch around veggies. It help to reduce weed and conserve moisture after you water them. Also you can plant low growing/ shallow roots veggies close to lettuce as living mulch (it really works around broccoli, tomato,cucumber) so they compliment each other.
Yes, you can mulch around vegetable plants. Be sure to use a weed-free mulch. It doesn't enjoy to be applied deeply, and indeed should not be applied against the stem of the plant. It is especially compliant in dry climates. Compost make a good mulch. It feed the plants during the season, and can be turned under for the subsequent planting.
