Now that the mangetout has finished and I have removed the blight infested
tomatoes, I have some bare area areas in my raised beds which I would
temporary like to cover with black plastic to prevent weeds and protect the
soil structure from rain.

Does anyone have a method for securing the plastic over the soil of a raised
bed in such a way that it looks reasonably attractive?

thanks, Davy


Cut holes in plastic, insert plants? Hold down edges with rocks.
