Textile mulch 1.6 x 20 m, Baltic Agro
Seller: ALLIKASILM
About this product
Textile mulch 1.6 x 20 m — a black breathable fabric laid on the bed instead of weeding. Weeds need light to grow; black fabric does not pass it, and the bed stays clean all season without a single weeding.
Unlike plastic sheeting, textile passes water and air: rain reaches the roots, the soil breathes and no oxygen shortage builds up underneath. Moisture stays even — which is why strawberries and squash crop noticeably better on fabric.
Size 1.6 x 20 m. Typical uses: the strawberry bed, pumpkins and courgettes, under berry bushes, along a new hedge line. Producer Baltic Agro, Estonia.

Advice from our agronomist
Clear first. Remove perennial weeds from the bed — couch grass and dandelion grow out from under the fabric and through every slit. Annual weeds die off under the cover by themselves.
Bury the edges. Bury them 10 cm deep or fix them with pegs: wind lifts a loose edge and tears the fabric.
Cut crosses. Cut planting holes as a cross and tuck the corners in — a round hole frays and doubles in size within a year.
Dress the top. A thin layer of bark or woodchip shields the fabric from sunlight and looks better.
Where not to use it. Under annual vegetables re-sown every spring, mulch fabric is more nuisance than help.
