Comments about Recycled Plastic Weedblock:

The ad is misleading about the color of this product so I was not able to order it for the correct use. The recycled-plastic-weedblock is pictured as dark green though it is actually light green. Please fix this.

Comments about Recycled Plastic Weedblock:

Rebuilding an overgrown garden. Wanted a product that would let rain and nutrients into soil but which would effectively keep out weeds. Liked that it is made of recycled materials. Very thin, so we'll see in a year or two if it keeps the weeds down (covered with about 3 inches of wood chips so expect success).

Comments about Recycled Plastic Weedblock:

Just got this for this season & I just put it down the other day. It was easy to use and I cut it with a utility knife. Then I put the cedar mulch all over it. We have had alot of rain in the past few days & everything is holding up fine. The mulch is still on it and it is not slipperly at all-thought it might be. I do love it so far but will have to see if the weeds come up.

Comments about Recycled Plastic Weedblock:

This product really works. I recently turned a corner of my yard into a raspberry patch. I put this product over the grass and put mulch on top -- nothing has come up through it. I wish I had the foresight to put this product under my other garden before planting my blueberries.

Comments about Recycled Plastic Weedblock:

This seems to be doing a good job stopping weed growth between the rows of my garden. It is porous to the water goes throughto the soil nicely. My only complaint is that it is much lighter in color than the picture shows on the website, so I dont think it does a good job of heating the soil.

Comments about Recycled Plastic Weedblock:

I bought this to put under my raised beds, before I filled them with compost. We have wicked wire grass and I am hopeful this will help contain the monster. It certainly was easy to cut and to roll back up. I like the width. I'll review again at the end of the summer and let you know if we held the monster at bay.
