The thickest I could find thusfar is 3.4 mil. , but it will do for now.
Thanks for the 'heads-up ' for Lowes 6 mil.; 6 mil makes the plastic more versatile for a variety of chores around the house .
Yeah , I hear you about the Preen ground cover .
It seems that about a month ago, I got the last roll at my local Sam's Club , and the price was $30.oo .
So I have it now for next years garden , but have to weed the garden out for now ..
Good to know that it is reusable , and will last several years ; the purchase was a thoughtful whim about possible avaoiding stoop labor. Two nights ago , we got hit with 23 º temps( killing frost); todays high in the mid-50's so today is leaf raking and compost pile building.
— avaoiding stoop labor—
Thats something that is getting more scare every day around here.
The Preen is a great value just based on the amount for the price vs the little rolls from Lowes or somewhere. But getting several uses from it is icing on the cake. We have a small(tiny) garden so we can align the fabric so as the openings for the plants come out in the correct location. Most of the fabric gone from the roll is from my wife putting it down over her flower beds then covering with mulch. — Everything around here is set up for low maintenance. —
