How A Pre Emergent Herbicide Kills Weeds, Saving You Time & Pain
There is nothing more frustrating than digging weeds out from your yard, only to see the seeds blowing in from miles away. You’re in an endless loop of weeding, and your back hurts just thinking about it. It shouldn’t be that hard to have a lawn and garden to be proud of. If you’ve heard the saying “knocked the feet right out from under me”, that’s exactly what a pre emergent does to those weeds as they start to grow.
What does it mean? All plants have roots, and to stop unwanted seeds from growing, you’re going to knock their feet out. A pre emergent stops a seed from turning into a plant, but does not harm the plants you have. You can use it and feel safe knowing that it won’t hurt what you’ve already got.
Is it safe to use? Who wants to keep people and pets off their yard because of spraying? This product has no synthetic chemicals that linger, so it's safe for people and pets to be on your lawn after you apply WOW!®.
How does WOW!® stop weeds? This product is made from corn gluten meal, which weakens the seedlings roots. Without these roots, the weeds can’t grow. Simply water in the pre emergent at the time for the seed sprouting, and let it do what it does naturally. That’s not all it does, either.
Are there more benefits? Since it is food based, this will also feed your lawn. It has 9% nitrogen, which is released slowly, so it gives the plants you have a boost of natural fertilizer. WOW!® pre emergent herbicide is a true weed and feed.
When to apply pre emergent herbicide? Use WOW!® from mid-August until the first hard frost to prevent fall-sprouting and perennial weeds. Use again in early spring to prevent annual and spring-sprouting weeds. Can be applied on lawns, paths, and between rows of vegetable crops.
What rules should be followed? You’re trying to kill seeds, so don’t put lawn seed on; do that another time. Pre emergents work like a blanket so don’t put holes in it by aerating your lawn; save that for another time too. After watering it in, let the area dry out so you don’t wash it away, plus the new roots will wither faster and have less chance of recovering if it’s drier.
Having a yard to be proud of should never be a choice between yanking weeds out or using chemicals. With those options, it’s no wonder we’re tempted to throw up our hands and let the weeds grow where they may. WOW!® is a natural choice for a pre emergent that gives you a leg up and leaves weeds with nothing to stand on.
