kissinuk Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 (edited) New woodchip day seems to have gone down well (didn't realise quite how bad the old ones had disintegrated!). For those who have asked before about what to put around the bottom to keep the chips in, I've just put some 6mm mesh around most of the WIR. Haven't done all of it yet, but it's worked a treat, plus it doesn't reduce the visibility like log roll/decking etc. I've used the Newland mud management system for the past 6 months, have to admit it was a pain (and gross) cleaning out the small bits that had composted between the mesh & weed mat even though I've regularity hosed & used stalosan. All good now though, and the best part was the woodchip was all free Edited November 8, 2015 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullethunter Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 That mesh is a good idea (I still haven't done anything yet). Where did you get it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kissinuk Posted November 8, 2015 Author Share Posted November 8, 2015 It was from a local hardware shop, but it's by Gardman so probably available in garden centres too. Cost £4.99 for a sheet which covered 2m when cut in half (there's probably cheaper options but I needed it quickly!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullethunter Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Is it metal or plastic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
