Should easy Gardner biodegradable weed block be watered before putting

I would suggest installing it when it is dry. It may be susceptible to tearing if it is too wet when you are handling it. We always put it down dry and then anchor in place with earth staples or small blocks. Also, if you need to trim it when it is being put into place, it's harder to trim if wet.

no need to water - the ground underneath will retain moisture. After I laid mine down dry, it rained and I went to plant my seeds the next day after things had dried. It was nice and wet under the weedblocker :) I did find that this didn't cover quite as much area as I anticipated. You might want to order 2 if you're using it on a larger area

What I've heard is don't allow Anyone or thing on the lawn until it fully dries. http://www.pbigordon.com/pdfs/Q4-SL.pdf

Each layer, or basket, is open on top. If you're drying weed, you don't want to dry outside anyway, because you want to avoid light exposure as much as possible. This thing is huge too.

Weed controls can affect germination. Don't apply Scotts Turf Builder Weed & Feed to a newly seeded lawn until the grass is up and growing and has been mowed at least 4 times. If you apply the product prior to seeding, you will need to wait 4 weeks before seeding.

I have done both. If you mix in soil before adding water, you will need to add a bit more water to the soil but you won't ave to water as often after that.

This is a product I use to prevent weeds from sprouting from seed. So I would recommend you use live plants or slit the paper where you want to plant the seeds. Remember this will biodegrade each year. I love it because I do not have to use herbicides and I can still plant. However, the down side is until I get weeds under control in an area, I have to reapply it each year. I have an acre of untamed land and am slowly getting it under control.

No but mixing it with soil will reduce the need for watering. I have never tried using solely the beads other than for cut flowers.

probably. think less like sugar cube/sand castle and think more like bail of hay. if water is turbulent, obviously, it will wear the blocks down but they are amazingly resilient. i use promix soil and there's plenty or organic matter to hold things together. good luck!

I used peat and it worked out fine.As for humidity I put a couple of glasses of water inside with the humidity/temperature gauge.No problems whatsoever.Good luck.(Oh,and in case you weren't aware.Be sure to germinate you seeds in water for a few days before planting.Tiny little sprouts.Then plant.)

Yes, it's for in-house plants, vegetables, even medical marijuana and many other plants that are grown in containers. Also the old used Pro-Mix is a excellent soil conditioner for outdoor flower beds and the backyard garden so nothing is wasted.

The weed barrier is permeable, so water will pass route without any problems. Strictly speaking I don't think it matters to your vegetable garden whether your poly tubes are under or over the barrier. However, for future access to the watering system you may want to put it on top as having to remove the layer in order to work on your system may be a pain.

I think if you have a level surface and you line it first so the liner goes up the sides and use a soil that will absorb the water, it would be fine. Garden soil usually has absorbing beads in it. I placed mine on the grass and lined it with weed liner and it worked great. Once you have all the soil in it, it is very stable and the plants are beautiful.

It really depends on the soil moisture and its consistency, and also how much weight you put on it. I use 2 mason blocks. My yard is usually bone dry and hard, so I watered it really well the night before. All it did is penetrate about an inch and a half to 2 inches. You have to watch that the tines don't pick up larger sticks, because it will cause your tines to drag instead of roll.

Of course not. It is a porous container, with holes on the sides and an open bottom. The organic material needs to be moist to promote decomposition; however, if it is too saturated it helps to work in dry materials (e.g., leaves, grass clippings, ripped up paper) to restore a better air-water balance.

Aerify Plus can be applied anytime during the growing season. However, it is best to water it in throughly (1/2-1 inch of water) soon after applying it. That could be by sprinkler or before/during a rain. This allows the product to penetrate the soil and go to work immediately. But, it will not hurt the lawn if it doesn't get watered in either. I hope that answer your question. Thank You!

Depends on the root depth of what you are planting. I put a weed block fabric on the bottom of mine. Planted tomato on the deeper side and broccoli on the lower side. Lettuce and cabbage should do well. It's really very similar to container garden. Right depth of soil and good drainage. Adequate sun and shade.

Yes. You only need a few tb per gallon of water depending on what your trying to kill. So you need a sprayer for this product. It is the best I have used for the hard to kill weeds like creepers.
