Hey do any of you guys know how to estimate for weedblock I'm putting stones around my house and dont know if 3 x 300 feet will cover 1200 sq feet of bed area. Also what is better 3 oz or 4 oz for stones.

Thanks Josh

3 x 300 equals 900 sq. ft., where I went to school. Plus, you'll lose a couple of inches when you overlap each row.

I can't answer your specific question about what is better - 3 oz. or 4 oz. but I would guess the cost is negligible so I'd go with the 4 oz. - if it were me doing it.

I quit using it. Grass clippings and windborne dirt just accumulate on top of it as do weed seeds. In essence, you create what you don't want but at a higher expense. Would you like to see my pineapple garden? I did it by the numbers and still hit the weeds with RoundUp.

if your area is 30 X 40 that is 1200 square feet, or 2' X 600' ,or 3' X 400' i would put down double the area then the rocks
