Never noticed a diffence is sides Fred.......can you describe what you have?


Black and shiny on one side, pale grey and fibrous on the other.


um, thats sounds more like a root barrier, ie something dug into the
ground to prevent something like say, bamboo, from spreading.
I mean, "black"... how does the light get in?


I _think_ this stuff is to stop weeds but it lets the water in for
nearby plants. If I'm right, light isn't needed.
