Hemlady said:I used a commercial grade weed barrier several years ago and still got weeds. Once the weeds put roots through the barrier it is very hard to pull them out.


Excuse me for being picky, but your wording implies that the weeds were on top of the barrier, growing down, as opposed to growing up through them. Or did I read you incorrectly.

It's been about six months for our test path, and so far only the nut grass and come through it from underneath.

During this year's Daylily Mecca here in central Florida, I took a very careful look at several gardens that used nursery cloth. Especially, Ted Petit, John Peat, and Ladybug Nursery.

the only weeds I saw were those that peeked up around the edges of the cloth, or in places where two strips of cloth weren't overlapped.
