Comment on Mint
Ferrous@lemmy.ml 1 week ago
My neighbors mint spread to an area of my driveway that is comprised of (from bottom to top) weed barrier, 8 inches of CA6, and 2 inches of river rock.
Needless to say, we’ve been finding excuses to make as many mojitos as possible.
Does it smell nice when you drive over it? Does it allow rainwater to percolate? Can your vehicle get sufficient grip and support?
I guess maybe you’re worried it will dislodge the rocks and make the surface uneven? Because otherwise it seems like a non-problem. If you make a point of squashing the tallest bits each time you won’t even have to cut it.
Im not worried about it. The driveway is primarily a concrete slab, with the aforementioned river rock acting as a sort of decorative strip along the edge. It sure does smell nice.

The previous owners of our house planted mint, no matter what we do, we also have mint.
Fresh mint on vanilla ice cream tho…
Now our neighbors also have bamboo… I’m going all in on Crossbow for that!
