Now Is The Time for Natural Weed Control!

Concern Weed Prevention Plus Concern Weed Prevention Plus prevents annual weeds from growing in flower and vegetable beds, around trees and shrubs and lawns for 4 -6 weeks. Reapply as needed. Weed Prevention Plus is 100% natural corn gluten. Garden Weed Preventer prevents new weeds from growing but does not kill existing weeds. Corn Gluten contains a naturally occuring substance which inhibits the growth of the seed's tiny feeder roots. This causes the weed seedlings to die before their roots ever have a chance to become established. Remember, this natural chemical barrier will also prevent desired seeds from developing also, so take care when planting flower and vegetable seeds. Do not use on grass that has been recently seeded as it may inhibit the germination of the new seeds. Weed Prevention Plus is safe for people, pets and wildlife.

Persistence is key to using Corn Gluten effectively. The more years you use corn gluten, the better weed control it exhibits. Corn Gluten is also a good natural source of Nitrogen, which is great for helping to green up your plants. Corn Gluten can also be used with mulch for even better weed control. Apply the Corn Gluten after you put the mulch down to help prevent weeds from germinating in the mulch.

It's Easier to Prevent Weed Seeds Now,
Than to Weed Later!

Preventing Weeds: Using a pre-emergent weed control on a regualr basis is an easy way to the weeds at bay. Whenever possible, it is always a good idea to remove and destroy seed heads before they mature and seed all over your garden.As the expression goes: One year seeding makes seven years weeding! Even when spraying weeds any flowers presxent may still produce seeds so remove them promptly while the weeds are being treated.
If you're unsure what you need to spray, or which spray would work best for your particular situation, bring in several samples of your weed problems to our Information Counter, and our staff will help you pick just the right solution for you.
