Hi carole i have seen carpet used as weed mat around native plantings in gullys etc and it works really well but not so much in a home garden.
Garden row carpet.
My problem is that water runs straight through the garden and weeps into the canal thereby over draining the lawn even after heavy watering or rain with the result being a forever dry brown and unhealthy lawn.

For a typical row garden a used carpet can be stripped into 30 inch widths and rolled out to create an edge and pathway between crops.
A weed barrier between rows of garden vegetable plants reduces the chance of weeds competing with those plants for water and nutrients and it keeps the ground dry making accessing the plants simple.
I have considered laying old carpet or carpet underlay with the hope that this will remain damp then top dressing then a new lawn.

I use strips of old carpet both as paths and as a weed suppressant.
But perhaps if i had wider rows i wouldn t be so panicky in the garden.
