Hi, Looks like you've worked hard in the garden. I did my garden
last
year, half lawn & half bark. I pressume you laid a liner under the
bark? I also sprayed the ground with weedkiller first & now only
have
containers (less weeding).. I don't understand the soil in your
bark?
Where has it come from? All I do with mine is occationally rake
over
the trodden bits to even the coverage & a spray of weed killer on
the
offending weed when one appears. Marshal Anderson Wrote:

Are you talking to yourself already? I do it, too, but I sense that
I'm a good bit older than you are. But if you have to use weedkiller
(for one weed, I think you said?) as well as membrane _and_ a mulch,
then there's something radically wrong with your system. Try
gardening instead! That way you'll also understand where the soil
comes from, as well as why that one weed appeared.

Another tip: if you use Google to find uk.rec.gardening, you won't
be stuck with gardenbanter
