weeds already
 

Here in NJ.
We were in Florida and when we came back, broadleaf weeds and dandelions
have already started on the lawn so....
My original plan was to use Scotts + halts but I jumped right to Scotts Plus
2.
Probably a mistake but I didn't want to wait another 6 weeks for the plus 2
application since weeds have already started.
I remember years ago, my 1st application was always PLUS 2 and my lawn
always looked great (no crabgrass either)
Question is, does the plus 2 have any effect on crabgrass that hasn't
germinated yet?

If you guys up there still have really cool temps, you might try some
corn gluten as soon as possible to stem pre-emergent activity. Feed
store or organic stores would probably have this. Apply once in late
winter/early spring and in the fall. 20% vinegar with a spray applicator
does well, too. =


(I got into something really neat this year in the early spring with
pre-emergent control - a propane torch,
http://www.flameeng.com/. Works really well)

Some folks spread compost on their yards 1/2 to 3/4 inch in late
winter/early spring and that helps prepare the lawn for full lush growth
the following year and it helps chock out weeds. They also feed with an
organice fertilzer and not synthetic ones. =

There is something wrong with telling someone to read the bag and
follow the directions?

It's idiotic to read a bag of poison before using it? Wow.

Do you reade the salt shaker before dumping it on your food? I doubt it.
