I purchased the 500g on a roll, and it is certainly sturdy enough. I used it to cover my newly made and manured raised beds late last year, in the spring...no weeds, worms had made a super ready seedbed! I shall reuse this year.

One of the eBay shops, I got a 20m roll. I've just had a quick look and there isn't any for sale at the moment I'm afraid..I've had a look through my past purchases and can't work out what the sellers name was either! Sorry.... :-\

In the event, needing a 4m width, I had to go to 1000g
