- Here is a link to the cardboard roll like what we used. amzn.to/47Dwmrj. This does seem to be a great substitute to using a plastic fabric. Just make sure your beds do not have any extremely tough weeds as they may push through if they are.I hope the video was a blessing!
I built 10 beds this year 25 feet x 30 inches using 24 inch rolls of cardboard. I did 2 layers and covered with 4 to 6 inches of compost. I have had the most productive weed free garden ever. Yes I do have to weed 3 times a week but what breaks through is weak and easy to pull. I now notice the first beds are now 6 months old and there are less weeds each week. I planted right on top of rhizome type weeds and grass which cannot be dug out or removed.
This is a great testimony! Thank you for sharing your story. I have experienced the same. As long as we get the first season weed-free it seems the subsequent years are wonderful!
Can you please tell me where you got your rolls from? I use compost to mulch to and you don't have to move the mulch to plant. What kind of compost did you use. I've been using LeafGro and it has a rich dark look and the plants really pop. Such a great idea of the rolls. I was doing the box but I get too tuckered out and give up. LOL
Thank you for sharing! We are about to convert our entire back yard into a garden (50% already done)🎉🎉🎉.

Great idea! Saves a ton of time for a minor cost. I’ve spent loads of hours collecting, storing, and breaking dow cardboard boxes … not to mention removing the tape and labels! Thanks for this
Glad it was helpful!
Lay the cardboard down with the tape and labels. Wait for it to rain. Now go back and remove all the tape. Much easier this way.
Daniel Meeks, full of Grace all over the place! BLESSED In Pennsylvania….
Yes he is!!
I did this in my flowerbeds and it worked awesomely! Thanks for sharing. Keep up the good work!
Thank you!!! That’s such a great idea!!! I don’t have to drive around town to beg for dirty cardboard boxes.
Yes it will definitely work.
Thank you! We think so too.
I’ve been using builder’s paper. I’ll have to compare the price to this. Thanks!
Blessings to all!
Thank you.

Thank you for sharing such wonderful content!
Daniel sounds just like your dad!
He does doesn't he!
Great idea!
Thanks!
A must try!!
Landscape fabric is awesome stuff for the first guy if he leaves within a couple years.
So So So Bad for the next guy!😂. Ugh!
Great Video! I clicked on the link but it only took me to the main Amazon page. Can you tell me the size and length? It looks like 4ft and corrugated but not sure. Such a great idea and soooo much easier. I had to switch from shredded mulch but now only mulch with compost. It might be more expensive however I found Leafgro for about $3 for 2cft so I don't have to move the mulch to plant. I'm old and bending down get's harder and recovery is slower. Thank you so much for sharing this great video and all the hard work you put in. It's been a year and if you haven't done an update could you please share how it's going? And YES! You have a VERY COOL BRO!!!
Hi! Thank you! I’m so glad it was helpful. I think if you search “cardboard roll” on Amazon it’ll pop up. Does this help?
I believe it was 3 ft by 100 ft
The amazon link to the product is not working. Can you please post the name of the product and manufacturer?
What is the width of the roll?
Do you have any updates? How well did it work?
Can we use the aluminum flashing roll for the side along the fence?
Would a cardboard boxes works the same?
Um I watched this last week!! I'm confused 😆
Haha! Sorry about that. When I posted last week for some reason only like 50 people watched it. I think it posted incorrectly. So I just went ahead and re-posted. Hopefully you didn't watch it twice! Haha.
I was thinking about it lol thought maybe it was an update of something haha but it's always nice to see a GG video even if it's a repeat 😊🇦🇺
Great video! Just a question: If I use cardboard, then install the weed fabric, and top it with pebbles, will that be a good idea? Right now I only have the pebbles and I'm getting weeds all over. Thanks for the advice!
I would simply do the fabric. The cardboard will decompose and then you will have weeds again because the pebbles will let light in whereas the mulch does not. Hope this helps! Sorry for the late response.
Can I use this if Im just putting rock and flagstone pavers down? I want to keep the grass and weeds out!
@@MsHeatherLea I would NOT use this. I would use a landscape fabric underneath rock and pavers. That way it’ll help prevent weeds long-term
@@gardenguychannel thank you!
Hi there, this was really helpful! Where do you get the rolls of cardboard? I can't find any locally (in NH) and the places I've looked online are expensive- especially for shipping. TIA!
Hello Mrs. Jeni. There is a link in the description of this video, I believe. Unless you have a local place it looks like Amazon is the best option I know of. I hope this helps! Blessings
@@gardenguychannel Thanks! I missed the link. Appreciate it.
@@gardenguychannel - Can you post the link again for the rolls of cardboard? The link in the description does not work. Thanks!
@@TheOssia Sure thing! Here it is...www.amazon.com/sspa/click?ie=UTF8&spc=MTozNjM1Njk3NzY5MDMzMTY5OjE2Njk0MTY3OTM6c3BfYXRmOjIwMDA4ODYyNDMzMDc5ODo6MDo6&url=%2FBOX-USA-BSF24B-Singleface-Corrugated%2Fdp%2FB01N5DP1BH%2Fref%3Dsr_1_1_sspa%3Fkeywords%3Drolls%2Bof%2Bcardboard%26qid%3D1669416793%26sr%3D8-1-spons%26ufe%3Dapp_do%253Aamzn1.fos.18ed3cb5-28d5-4975-8bc7-93deae8f9840%26sp_csd%3Dd2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY%26psc%3D1
That cardboard looks thin. I would put 2 layers. Just my 2 cents.
Can we use weed mat as a mulch ?
Cardboard goes on first, mulch second and last is fabric is that right? Anything else ?
Fabric gets returned to the store.
No fabric
Cardboard only! No fabric Or you will regret it!
So, how much did you pay for that roll and what type of the cardboard are you using?
You don't seem to be answering your commenters.
Hello sir! Yes it’s been quite a busy season. Lots going on.
Actually the client bought them. I believe I left a link in description of what he bought so you could follow that and see the specs. Hope this helps!
don't wanna control weeds, wanna destroy the forever....so cardboard or fabric?
Cardboard. Fabric just becomes a unmanageable mess after first two years and it is so so hard to remove after two years.
Only cardboard. Fabric is the worst.
Where do you get the rolls of cardboard?
I believe there is a link in the video description. Hope this helps!
U-line is the best source of roll cardboard
Fabric is a waste of time, in about 3 years time it will be covered in leaves or moss and its plastic being used on ex farm land.
