Try laying cardboard down the path kinda thick and then lay the fabric down the cardboard will smother weeds better and then the fabric will work better

Wow thank you, there’s a ton of weed block brands. I was stuck till I saw this! Thank you for saving me misery of acquiring he best available without the wasted money and time!

To stop the weeds growing on and through the fabric, just cover your whole garden even your beds, never cut the fabric always burn to cut and make holes to put your plants in, never leave fabric out over winter, store it in a cold dry place and then cover crop beds over winter.

DeWitt Sunbelt is the way to go! Putting my garden in this week, 3rd year using it.

I also use the Dewitt fabric just like yours. It has grass growing through it so not unusual at all. It does better than any other fabric I have used, though, so I am grateful for that.

Awesome video, just a tip, if you want your camera to focus on random small subjects, don't get too close to the lens and just put your another hand behind it/them, and the camera will auto focus on your subjects ;)

This is the exact fabric I use in 6 ft width. Used for the second year this past year. Held up fine. Some problems as you showed. Here and there a bit of centipede grows through. I hate that grass and my garden used to be our lawn, which was tilled and tilled under several times and then I disposed of the centipede clumps by raking into piles and discarding over the pasture fence. Good fabric.

I gave you a thumbs UP just on the fact that you didn't begin with 'hey guys'.

Struggled with weeds for decades and the "solution" is not simple. I don't like Roundup, etc and my method has evolved as my garden has. I've gone from "around the pool" to 1/3 acre under landscaping. It's the "jungle" look - herbs, shrubs, veggies and flowers. Best method (bar none) - heavy plastic rolls. No weeds, nothing underneath but the cons are expense, heat, non-linear garden and retaining mulch. Next, cardboard covered by weed fabric (middle quality). I make holes to plant, add mulch and I'm good for at least 3 years, usually longer. The cardboard is great for "shaping" around plants.

My grandma and than us use to just use old carpet. We would always joke about her carpeted garden. But no weeds was in it.

Thank you a good video on your experience with the fabrics. Unfortunately, I researched the material and the breakdown into microplasics into ground & water. So no go on my little farm.

[kmunson]

Thank goodness for this video!!! Much appreciated! Just ordered.

My dad would say- Gardening is easy, weeding is hard. This type of stuff has been a godsend

[minkademko]

I wondered why I couldn't get my spade into the lawn, then found a chunk of carpet that the grass had grown through.

[RugbyNick]

My advise it to use carboard boxes and lots of wood chips. It is cheap and organic.

Always use top of the line ie Commercial grade weed blocker, I would not use it in a vegetable garden, only a flower garden .

Wish I had watched this 4 years ago when we started farming// needing to get rid of grass/weeds. We made all the same mistakes!

UV treated means the material won't degrade in sunlight, not that it prevents light penetration into the soil beneath.
