GARDENING BY THE MOON

PRE-EMERGENT WEED CONTROL 

Submitted by Dr. Robert E. Moon 

I know it is February and you are tired of the cold weather and you are looking forward to spring. However, the one thing you are not looking forward to this spring is the weeds that begin to grow in your turf and beds.  Since I do not know anyone that likes to pull weeds, before March 15, apply a pre-emergent weed control to your planting beds and turf. This pre-emergent will help control all spring and early summer weeds.  Apply Preen to planting beds and Halts to your turf.  Follow all label directions when applying.  You will find that this treatment will help you avoid pulling all those weeds.

Please RSVP to attend a FREE Springtime Gardening Q&A Workshop presented by Dr. Moon on Thursday, March 22 at 12 noon at the Emerald Bay Clubhouse. Feel free to bring any of your gardening and landscaping questions as we all prepare our yards for spring. Refreshments will be served. RSVP to SCRMAlifestyle@gmail.com with your name and address.
