Thanks Apeman I think landscape fabric is fairly useless for what it's supposed to do and it's a pain in the ass anytime you go to plant a new bush. The mulch is there to keept weeds from growing. Even if the fabric works initially, within a few years there will be organic material on top of it. Wind blows in dirt, dust, decaying bits of leaves, etc and it works it's way in, defeating the whole purpose. I just use mulch and then hit the few weeds that make it through with Roundup or equivalent. |

Thanks Apeman move the nuggets aside, put down a few layers of cardboard and put the nuggets back on top. by the time the cardboard is eaten by the worms it will smother most weeds. songbird I never thought of cardboard. Certainly cheaper. And should dissolve over time. Thanks Apeman |
