Hi,

I have a gravel area in my yard where weeds constantly grow between the stones. The area is used as:

• a backup parking spot,
• occasional access for larger deliveries or vehicles (maybe 5 times a year),
• but most of the time it serves as a play area for my child.

There is a wooden playhouse next to it, and a slide ends directly on the gravel, so I’m looking for a solution that:

• is child-friendly,
• requires little maintenance,
• still allows occasional car access,
• and looks tidy.

Right now it’s just gravel, and apparently there isn’t enough weed protection underneath.

What would you recommend?

• geotextile fabric + new gravel?
• gravel grids/honeycomb stabilization?
• a different material?
• how would you personally solve this?

I’m also attaching a photo of the current situation.

Živjo,

imam del dvorišča s prodom, kjer mi konstantno raste plevel med kamenčki. Ta del uporabljamo kot:

• rezervno parkirišče,
• občasni dovoz za večje stvari (mogoče 5x letno),
• večino časa pa kot igralno površino za otroka.

Ob produ stoji lesena otroška hišica, vanj pa se spušča tudi tobogan, zato bi rad neko rešitev, ki:

• ni nevarna za otroka,
• ne zahteva veliko vzdrževanja,
• omogoča občasno vožnjo z avtom,
• izgleda urejeno.

Trenutno je tam samo prod in očitno spodaj ni dovolj dobra zaščita proti plevelu.

Kaj priporočate?

• geotekstil + nov prod?
• travne plošče/satovje?
• drugačen material?
• kako bi vi uredili tako površino?

Prilagam še sliko trenutnega stanja.
