I almost gave up gardening until I found Farmers Friend. I now have all sizes of their Quick-Plant Fabric and love every one... The fabric is heavy with 3-in holes that don't fray. Love this Fabric."

Super smooth hole edges

Time Savings
Let us do the dirty work
No more building jigs. No more hot propane torches. Just 12 to 525 blissful feet of professional grade landscape fabric with ultra-smooth, pre-burned holes that will save you hours of precious time in the garden.
If burning hundreds (or thousands!) of perfectly-spaced holes in plastic mulch is your favorite task of the season, then this landscape fabric probably isn’t for you…
On the other hand, if you’d rather save hours of tedious labor and get back to actually growing food, then we think you’ll love Quick-Plant Fabric!
Less work. More profits.
Weeding doesn’t earn you a penny. The less time you spend doing it, the more profitable your farm becomes.
Quick-Plant Fabric is an effective tool to decrease weed pressure throughout the season, all while increasing water retention in the soil.
While you may need to do some light hand weeding around the perimeter of the plant once or twice while it’s small, Quick-Plant Fabric will essentially put your growing bed on autopilot for the rest of the season. Talk about revolutionary!

The Quick plant fabric is a game changer on the farm! Trying to burn your own holes in fabric is always a pain and it never turns out right. Having the pre cut holes are perfect for all my summer crops at 18 inch spacings and I save a ton of time by never having to pull weeds again!
Cleaner, smoother edges
A little less blood, sweat, & tears
If you’ve ever planted into landscape fabric with DIY burned holes (image on left), you know how gnarly those edges can be — and what your hands look like in the aftermath. Not pretty. Thanks to our innovative burner design, you’ll end up with far less damage to your hands and a much more pleasant planting (or weeding) experience! This small improvement is a big deal!
So, even if burning holes in landscape fabric IS your favorite farm task of the year (more power to you), your hands will be glad you chose to let us burn them for you!
July 2024 Update: Quick-Plant Fabric holes are now smoother than ever thanks to our new burning technology! Experience the difference for yourself!
Material Details
We’ve got you covered.
Our Quick-Plant Fabric consists of 3.2 oz. polypropylene, which resists tearing, puncturing and weed penetration. It is striped every 12 inches to aid in plant alignment and is UV-stabilized to last for many years even in direct sunlight.
Spacing Details
Pattern Options
18" single-row spacing (1 × 18) is great for crops like tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, squash, zucchini, full size cabbage, and Brussels sprouts.
18" double-row spacing (2 × 18) is also a good choice for tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, squash, zucchini, full size cabbage, and Brussels sprouts.
10" three-row spacing (3 × 10) is a good choice for crops like swiss chard, head lettuce, kale, mini-cabbage, fennel, Chinese cabbage, bok choi, and collards.
8" four-row spacing (4 × 8) works well for crops like Salanova® lettuce, beets, raddichio, garlic, and onions.

We saved so much time and money utilizing the Quick Plant Fabric from Farmers Friend. Reduced our bed prep task by hours. I would highly recommend using this product.
Durability
Slight fraying? No fretting!
If you like the smoothness of the holes in our old fabric, you're going to love the super smooth holes in this new Quick-Plant Fabric! The only potential downside to these super smooth holes is that after multiple uses, the edges around the holes can start to slightly fray.
The image to the right shows what the holes may look like after approximately 5 seasons of use. The integrity of the holes remain uncompromised and the fraying will not extend beyond the "corners" of the circle. You can still expect to get 5-10 seasons of use before the fabric succumbs to UV rays.

Gifted to my brother

My brother is new to gardening this year and got pretty excited about it. So I decided to stuff his “Christmas stocking” with a roll of planting cloth and a box of stakes for next spring! Great fun for him to try, and maybe he’ll become a customer!!

I'm 73, grow in the south and weeds are a nightmare. I almost gave up gardening until I found Farmers Friend. I now have all sizes of their Quuck-Plant Fabric and love everyone. I grow Tomatoes in the 1x 18 and Snapdragons in the 4 x 8. The fabric is heavy with 3 " holes that don't fray. Love this Fabric.
