Weedtex Weed Control Fabric 2 x 25m

Weedtex is a standard duty weed control fabric offering very effective weed suppression for many different applications. Weedtex allows nutrients (including liquid feed and fertilisers), water and air into the soil to maintain its goodness and promote plant growth, whilst preventing weeds getting the daylight they need to grow.

Installation Guidlines

1. Prepare the area where the fabric is to be laid by strimming any existing vegetation down to ground level.
2. Remove any stalks or sharp objects that could pierce the fabric.
3. For areas badly affected by weed growth, apply a suitable weedkiller.
4. Lay the WEEDTEX fabric out and ensure joints are overlapped by a minimum of 100mm.
5. Secure using EXTRAFIX fixing pegs. The best way to secure the edges of the fabric is by ‘spitting’ or ‘trenching’ the fabric 100-150mm into the soil.
6. Cover the fabric with a layer of bark or other mulch by a minimum of 50mm.

Notes:

1. WEEDTEX is a weed control fabric designed to suppress weeds, but does not eliminate the need for surface weeding as a result of seeds dropped by birds etc growing in the surface covering.

2. WEEDTEX will suppress most weeds but particular attention should be paid to very invasive weeds/grasses such as Mare’s Tail, Bindweed, Crocosmia, Ground Elder, Couch Grass, nettles, brambles and some bulbs. A weedkiller should be applied first and then we would recommend laying a double layer of WEEDTEX or a double layer of the surface covering (e.g. min 100mm of bark) or both for severe areas.

For effective weed suppression beneath garden decking install a layer of WEEDTEX, secure with EXTRAFIX Plastic Pegs and cover with bark (50mm minimum).
