Space Chick Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Do not use rubber chippings...I did worst mistake ever! Use wood chip (not bark chip). If you go to B&Q are search bark chip, it comes up with hardwood wood chips, they are not bark and are fab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
