once laid down in the garden, should Easy Gardner biodegradable weed block be watered before putting mulch on top of it

I found it better to put straw on top then water for the wet paper is very unstable and rips after wet. The straw makes more of a weave over the paper than mulch and helps protect the paper. Then you can easily walk over it without ripping the paper. Make sure you have straw and not hay. Plus the straw decays nicely over the winter while it can be reused on second planting of winter root crops. Hope this helps.

No. It does not need watered. It needs to be mulched as you go so it doesn't blow away or weighted.

I can't tell you for sure, but I can tell you that when working on top of the un-mulched weed barrier it is hotter (Therefore, it will raise the temp above it and possibly bump you into a different planting zone if you do not put mulch over it). Bugs and slugs seem to do fine under the weed barrier, so I don't think it will cook your roots. Plus, when planting in weed barrier, you should make a fair sized circle around the base of your plant anyway.

Correct. Get a large plastic tray from the garden shop and put under the seed tray. This way you won't waste water.

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.

We don't mulch because of the increase growth of weeds. But if I used mulch, I would put it under the mulch.

It truly depends on the grow material you plan on using. If your starters are in Rockwell cubes then no water in resevoir. To me it's only used with water if your starters are already rooted, then I would fill it just over the air stones, make sure the stones are covered well and check level daily. Hope this helps, check me out on u tube I teach on there everything u will ever need to know about growing. My channel is mrbigdwc73, hope this helps

It takes the place of mulch for me. It is made of material that lets water go thru. It will not wash away as mulch would in some cases. It will last for quite some time, even years. I have had mine for a couple of years and it is still as good as the day I laid it down.

you would have to put a hole in the center and insert it down the shaft, inside the metal basket. I have a friend that does this, but I see no real advantage to this. I just put my grounds in a container after use, and use for compost.

We put pea gravel down, then the ground cover, then the Gorilla pad. No weeds under the pool. We had a couple On the outside but that's all

No, not to my knowledge. In fact, it would make sense to me that you don't water the grass. You want the liquid to adhere to the weeds and watering prior to application may lessen any adhering properties. You can always call ortho to be sure though. Good luck!

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.

After you watered your lawn. It seemed like you needed to reapply. For Rabbit, Rabbit pellet is better, last for a few week with or without water

I suggest avoiding stones of any size in the spreader. Pea gravel might fall through, but the goal is to only place soft organic matter in the spreader.

Landscape fabric should be used to cover the cement before adding soil to prevent soil washing out. Be advised that a water stain will likely remain on the cement after removal of the raised bed garden.

rack out the old dead grass. Best time to add seed after it is mowed and yes it will crowd out the weeds

Yes. It's easy to cut. However, we never cut ours. You can order in different lengths and we just fold it at the end of the row if it is too long. The width is always fine as you want it to be loose enough so it doesn't crowd your plants. We place bricks or stone on the sides and at the bottom and top to discourage rabbits and squirrels from getting under the row covers and eating the tender new growth. Also works great to keep the crows from pecking up the seeds. We leave the row covers over our plants until they are established and the animals leave them alone. We just move the bricks and loosen the row cover as needed.

I just walk the line where I buried it. Will usually find the place where a weed eater dug it up or some other cause. So far it has been easy. They do make a tool for that, if you can't find the break. So far I've had no trouble.
