black matting to stop weeds

All gardeners have to take care of their unwanted weeds every now and then, and it can be a tedious chore. Luckily, using black matting can be immensely useful in curbing those weeds’ growth since it smothers them off and saves precious time.

For homeowners with gardens of all shapes and sizes, black matting offers a simple yet effective way to stop bothersome weeds from taking over. By creating a physical barrier between the soil and the sun’s rays, this form of landscape fabric keeps gardens looking neat by keeping weeds at bay.

After designating the patch of ground that is to be draped in black matting, break out the tools and get cutting. Using either a pair of scissors or a blade, accurately tailor the covering to suit the dimensions of the area. Once the dimensions are met, install the matting firmly by anchoring it with sturdy staples or landscape pins.

Thoroughly dousing the area will ensure the matting and the earth below are adequately moistened, securely anchoring it and preventing it from flying away in gusts of wind.

After a few short weeks, you will start to see that the weeds do not dare come near the area sheltered by the matting. You are given the liberty to keep the omniscience of that matting intact for long periods of time; it can be there for months or even years, based on how much longer weed suppression is desired.

When you’ve made all the necessary preparations and are ready to move forward with the replanting, simply get rid of the matting and you’re good to go – there’s no need to stress about uncoupling or taking out the stables or pegs, as they’ll disintegrate gradually with the passing time.

Gardeners with tighter budgets can find respite by using black matting for weed control. Not only is matting highly effective in preventing pesky weeds from taking over, but it is also cost-efficient, given that one roll can yield a sizable coverage area.
