  • plastic shrub discs?

    Hi im wondering what the plastic disc things are called that you get to go round the base of shrubs and fruit bushes to keep the weeds away from them. Ive seen them but cant remember what they are called.

      tbh, I'd rather pull out the odd weed by hand than see a whole sea of white plastic discs, but that's just me.
      Also, they would make a nice hiding place for snails and beasties

        The only discs I have heard of are the ones to stop cabbage root fly.

          Don't they stop water getting to the plant also if they're plastic?

          Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

          Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

            Think you are right Mally. This place sells them to keep slugs off as well. Don't know if they work for that and can't comment on the vendor. Never used them.

            Why didn't Noah just swat those 2 greenflies?

            Why are they called apartments when they are all stuck together?
