    Where can I purchase (preferably online) VERY heavy duty black polythene and clear polythene sheeting?

    at a reasonable price?

    I need the black stuff as a weed surpressant and the clear for rather large cloches (mini polytunnels).

    I'm loathed to use carpet as they contain chemicals and I'm sick and tired of digging the buried ones out of my allotment (along with all the other ****) :(

    I will freddy and thanks for the reply.

    The other half is poorly at the mo so my plan to blitz the allotment this week has gone out of the window :'( Get well soon Carol !!!!!

    I've got so much to do and no time to do it because I'm picking up Carol's work where possible (we're both self employed).

    It's one of the reasons I want to sheet off half the plot and plant through the sheeting with plants raised in my greenhouse at home.

    Hi Vince look on ebay for the clear polythene sheeting I think you can buy some good industrial quality for about £25.

    Hope your beloved gets well soon nothing worst than being poorly more so when there's so much work to be done.Hel.xxx.

    Thanks all, Carols recovering so I'll be soon up the allotment again, I just hope I still have my allotment cos I have been absent for longer than I would have wished. Totally out on a limb if I've lost it because I have SO many seedlings to plant and they wont all fit in our garden plot.
