Cubic Meter  (M 3) - Length X Width X Depth

Square Meter (m2) - Length X Width

Post Holes - Diameter X Diameter X 

​

​

In Gardens-

Double the thickness of your rock. This will give you a good cover.

 

Driveways & Pathways-

A good depth is

50 - 75mm

​

 

MULCHING

​

Ensure the area is thoroughly watered

before Mulching.

A good covering when Mulching is

a suggested depth of at least

70-100mm this will help with keeping

weeds at bay and improve soil moisture.

Keep the mulch clear of the stem of 

your trees and plants.

Results when using centimeters 

1'000'000 = 1 square meter

500'000 = half square meter

250'000 = quarter meter

If any measurement is less than 1 meter enter amounts in centimeters. 
Calculating 
Example
​
2.5m Length
3m Width 
0.40m Depth
​
250cm x 300cm x 40cm
=3,000,000
​
Equivalent to 3 meters squared.
