G'day Curtis, do you have any problems with water runoff during rain periods with your landscape fabric?
But how would you water the plants since the plastic stops water? Would you run irrigation tubing below the plastic?
Thank you, I always learn so much from you. It saves me from reinventing the wheel
Weeds are a problem in our organic fresh herbs especially when it comes to rocket and coriander. Thank you for the video.
What fabric do u recommend at a good cost
Thank you!
where do you get purchase the torch rig?
why didn't I watch this video 2 weeks ago, before I planted my onions. Cause I did 5 row of the 6 inch on center, an had 250' of the fabric here, but figured it was to much work cutting that many holes, this is by far the best way.
Nice
Do you have a video showing how you make the flame weeder that you also use to burn holes into your landscape fabric or tarps?
The finished results are great but if you breath that plastic smoke you're screwed.
How does the spring clamp attach to the end? It looks like the clamp is only around the can itself. What holds it to the device? Does the clamp cover both the can and the device?
Curtis I listened to you about landscape fabrics and silage tarps and I couldn't be happier with the results.
I recommend both to my customers all the time.
I really like this idea and it makes a lot of good sense. But I just have in the back of my mind the question of can we quantify the impact on the environmental impact with using these plastics? I'm thinking about an idea that Elliot Coleman spoke about but in relationship to plastic coverings on greenhouses and having to take them down and dispose of plastic products periodically. I am very interested in this method an we are trying it on our farm. I just subscribed and we are trying to get up to the 21st century here in Central Maine! Keep up the good work.

Plastic is POLUTION !!!
Does it works this fabric with sprinkers irrigation?
Great idea! You can also save your time by using a plastic mulch roll cover hole puncher.
Yes I am going to this way of gardening too. My question is how do you handle seed planting .I have herd of different ways , but I would like to know what you salty?
Could you use just a regular plastic tarp?
Where do you buy this landscape fabric and silage tarps in Canada? I noticed Farmer's Friend doesn't ship the silage tarps to Canada. Also where do you get your impact sprinklers? Are you now using the wobblers instead?
Love this dude!
I'm wondering if you have a spacing chart that tells you what spacing to use and what size holes are necessary for each type of crop? How many templates did you make?
I'm really interested in this idea. I'm so sick of weeds ruining my garden year after year. I got topsoil from another person in town here and the weeds that came with the soil are destroying my garden. I need to get this under control and fast.
How do you keep them from getting the sun with the black fabric. Attracting heat ?
why u dont put ur course on Udemy
Is this giving off toxic vapors? I can't imagine that melted polpropylene is safe, but maybe it is? What are your thoughts?
I have a question how do you fertilize your plants with landscape fabric down.
Not all weed block fabric is created equal. What brand of weed block fabric do you use?
Thank so much for the info!!!
are you still using landscape fabric?
I've been going with Ruth Stout's "No Work Garden Book" approach, and it's been OK with lots and lots of mulch, but that does take some work to plant through. Was that also your experience with mulch, that led to developing this alternative?
Thanks!
