Would anyone know from where to buy the most reasonably priced garden
fleece
rolls please?

I bought 100m from ebay, lots of choice.

Just beware of cheap knock off's, it's best to buy a known brand.
Last year I bought 6 rolls of Weed Control Fabric on e bay, it cost about
£3.00 a roll less than the Tenax Weed Control Fabric I had bought before.
Within 6 to 8 weeks of being put down it had rotted with the sunlight, and
the rain beat it to hell.
The first picture was taken at the beginning of July,

The 2nd was taken 8th August

The tenax I had put down in 2010 had no damage and is still going strong
today

I see Tenax make fleece, but it seems a bit expensive. I am ignorant as to
what are other good makes of fleece at a good price. Any further advice is
most welcome. Thanks.


"Yuzet" now there's a brand I wouldn't touch.
Decide how much you want,
How many years will 100m last you,
I'd try the Gardman lot, not expensive and you will have over 60ft to
play with.
