Bark mulch and privet hedge?

Hi, I’m new here so I hope this isn’t a daft question.
I planted a bare root privet hedge in November last year. It’s small, but growing well and looking healthy. I have so many weeds growing in amongst the hedge plants it’s getting hard to keep on top of. I use bark mulch and cardboard in other areas of the garden and it works great, but I am worried I affect the young hedge plants if this is a no no?
