  "description": "The point of a weed barrier is light. Almost every annual weed seed in a bed needs light to germinate, so a layer that blocks light and nothing else does the whole job.\n\nThat is why permeability matters so much. A plastic sheet blocks light and also blocks water, and the bed underneath goes anaerobic and sour. Woven polypropylene blocks the light and lets the rain and the feed through.\n\nWoven rather than spun bonded is the specification to care about. Spun fleece is cheaper and tears along its length as soon as it is under tension, which is exactly what happens when you top it with gravel or bark and then rake it.\n\nLay it with a generous overlap, at least 10 cm, and pin it before you mulch. The U shaped garden stakes are the right fixing; nylon spikes will pull through woven fabric under load.\n\nIt cuts with ordinary scissors and does not fray, so you can shape it around established plants rather than lifting them.\n\nDelivery is NZD 25 anywhere in New Zealand, and free once your order reaches NZD 100. That is the rate this shop actually charges, proven against its own checkout rather than read off a settings page.\n\nYou have 15 days to change your mind under this shop's own returns policy. New Zealand law gives no automatic cooling-off period on an online order, so that is goodwill rather than statute: the goods come back at your cost in resaleable condition and a $39 handling fee applies per order. Faulty or misdescribed goods are a separate and stronger matter under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993.",
  "llm_summary": "Garden Weed Barrier Fabric 2 m Wide (per metre) sold by GardenEdge New Zealand at gardenedging.net.nz. Woven fabric that stops weeds and still lets water through. UV stabilised polypropylene, two metres wide, cut by the metre. Planting stripes every 30 cm. Price NZD 5 per metre, reference price NZD 7. Material: Woven polypropylene, UV stabilised. Width: 2 m. Sold: Per metre of length, no minimum order. Supplied: Boxed and folded, not on a roll. Permeability: Water and nutrients pass through. Marking: Planting stripes at 30 cm intervals. Suits: Flower beds, vegetable patches, gravel paths, under artificial grass. Delivery across New Zealand costs NZD 25 and is free on orders of NZD 100 or more. Nothing in this range is cut to a customer's measurement before it ships: the sections are supplied whole and the customer trims them if a shorter run is needed. New Zealand law gives no change-of-mind cancellation right on an online order, so what covers a change of mind here is this shop's own 15 day returns policy rather than a statute. The Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 covers faulty, unsafe or misdescribed goods separately, and nothing in the returns policy limits it. This line is not currently on sale through this shop.",
