Life has been very rough the last several years between Covid and family health issues, and my yard which was already weedy has paid the price… I'm reclaiming my sidewalk strip first since it's mostly rocks and also felt less overwhelming than getting to the yard itself, but under the deepest roots I found the rotting remains of plastic weedblocking fabric… just strands of plastic now, easy to break, but also kind of disturbing as they look a lot like human hair. 💀😅
I'm planning on planting some elfin thyme and maybe hen and chicks in the rocks, but I'm gonna have to remove this stuff, huh?
(Swipe for a glimpse of the progress I'm making.

This isn’t super relevant for this post, but I’m in northern Utah, 6b.
ETA: Two images first is a handful of the plastic fibers I pulled out of the ground, second is a shot of my rock strip, some of it fuzzy with weeds, some of it reclaimed and weeded.
