Standard Weight Roll. Sturdy dark brown paper provides a biodegradable mulch and weed barrier made from cellulose fibers. Porous enough to allow water penetration. Usually provides a season of weed suppression and soil-temperature moderation, although the rate of decomposition will depend on weather conditions and the degree of biological activity in the soil.
Perfect for giving competitive crops a protected start. Recommended for pumpkins, squash, cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower. Not recommended for high-traffic areas or where reliable season-long protection is required.
Please note that, as of 2022, WeedGuardPlus is no longer OMRI-listed, due to 2 FDA-approved colorants that serve to make it 100% opaque material. Still, for those not pursuing certification, it is a great alternative to plastic mulch if you want to reduce your footprint or your end-of-season labor bill. 36" wide.
