Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Prepare the ground by clearing away any large stones or debris.
- Unroll the weed membrane and position it over the desired area.
- Cut the membrane to the required shape and size using sharp scissors or a utility knife.
- Secure the membrane in place using weed control membrane pegs, spaced approximately 30-50 cm apart along the edges and at intervals across the surface.
- Cover the membrane with your chosen material, such as mulch, gravel, soil, or decking.
Compatibility:
This weed membrane is compatible with most soil types and landscaping materials, including mulch, gravel, bark chips, decorative stones, soil for planting beds, and materials used for pathways and patios. It can be used under raised garden beds, around established plants, and in areas where permanent ground cover is desired.
Care:
- Periodically check that the membrane remains secure and has not shifted.
- If weeds begin to grow on top of the covering material (mulch or gravel), they can usually be removed by hand without penetrating the membrane.
- Clean off any debris that accumulates on the surface.
- While UV-stabilised, covering the membrane with mulch or gravel will further extend its lifespan and protect it from direct sunlight.
