      Comments about Biodegradable Weed Mat:

      Is effective in holding weed growth down. I anticipate it'll biodegrade into the garden soil and till in very easily in the spring.

        Comments about Biodegradable Weed Mat:

        The weed mat certainly keeps the majority of the weeds at bay. However, we mulched on top of the weed mat for esthetics and it was too much. It kept the soil much too wet. Perfect without the mulch.

        Comments about Biodegradable Weed Mat:

        I was excited to use this product in the hopes of eliminating a lot of weeding in my garden. I used earth staples to secure the mat but a wind storm came up and blew the mat out of my garden. My husband & I had to resecure it with some spare pieces of wood as weights. Did not hold up to walking on it as it ripped each step I took. Good concept but doesn't work for me & my garden.

        Comments about Biodegradable Weed Mat:

        I used product in 2008, and tho it was fussy to install and deteriorated easily, it did the job of blocking weed growth better than its black competitors, and my garden did well. Trying it again in 2009.

          I used this in my vegetable garden to keep down weeds. It was a bit difficult to put down (I was the only one doing it) but it works great so far. No weeds and my plants are happy!

          I live in a windy area, even though I had the paper weighted down, it ripped up and blew away. If I lived in a place that wasnt as windy I would definately use this again - it is spendy though.

            Comments about Biodegradable Weed Mat:

            EASY TO USE, BUT ABSOLUTELY NEEDS TO BE ANCHORED WITH BRICKS, ROCKS, ETC. WE USED STAKES TEMPORARILY AND IT RAINED THEN DRIED OUT AND THE WIND PICKED IT UP AND BLEW IT AWAY. WE NOW HAVE BRICKS AND STRAW HOLDING IT DOWN. NOT SURE ABOUT THE WEED CONTROL YET, SINCE IT'S SO EARLY IN THE SEASON.

            It was hard to structure around plants. I used for a vegetable garden. It might work better in a large area.
