Blackout tarps effectively eliminate weeds by preventing the plants' photosynthesis process. This is due to the opacity of the fabric, which prevents light from penetrating. The black color of the fabric warms the soil, accelerating the decomposition of organic matter through the activation of microorganisms. This technique reduces or even eliminates the use of herbicides, thus preserving soil biodiversity. These tarps can be installed in autumn or as early as possible in spring. It will take a minimum of 6 weeks for grass and weeds to disappear completely.
