Customer Reviews for Ferti-Lome Broadleaf Weed Control with Gallery

I purchased the pre-emergence weed control to combat spotted spurge because of the water restrictions in the Palm Springs CA area. Warning-the bag has no directions on what setting to set the spreader and the help desk has no idea what setting. Their recommended setting covered less than 2500 ft instead of 5000 ft. Let the buyer beware.

  Expert response:
Thank you for your feedback! We apologize for any confusion or inconvenience. Unfortunately, there are so many spreaders on the market that it is impossible for manufacturers to have a complete list of recommended settings. Also, keep in mind that different people walk at different paces. For these reasons, we highly recommend calibrating your spreader your needs. Otherwise, you should always start with the lowest setting on your spreader and adjust from there.

Pre-emergent other than corn gluten is hard to find these days but it's worth it. We've used it for a few years now and it does a good job of keeping our neighbors' 10,000 dandilions out of our yard. Much better than weed-n-feed POST-emergent.

First year we used this product, we saw a significant reduction in weeds. Have used this product for years now and can say honestly it has saved many hours of backbreaking weeding. Would heartily recommend this product.

I use this product at my home in VA on my fescue and at my Dad's in GA on his Bermuda/centipede. It has saved me more hous in weeding than I can say. I apply it in VA in Early winter, spring, and sometimes summer. I used to have seas of chickweed, lespedeza, blossom weed, spurge, corn speedwell, dandelions- you name it. Not now. Tip- apply two strips on edges. They get the wear and that's the weak link. I did Dad's house in GA for the first time this year. This product has is the only ingredient that the extension site says stops chamberbitter. We will see! I am also hoping it helps with Carolina Geranium too. I will update this later to say. Shipping from this site was great. Prompt and well packed.

Can't say much about the product yet. First application was in spring (2013) so I haven't really given it a chance, but it does look promising. Will re-apply next spring so I will know more by mid summer (2014). Can say that the service at Do My Own Pest Control is quite fast. Had the product just a few days after ordering and now have enough on hand to last a couple years. Only gave three stars because I still don't know how well the product works. Service is 5 star.

I've been using this product for about 3 years as a pre-emergent herbicide in early spring. My primary problem here in Florida is the chamberbitter weed. I had thousands of chamberbitter seedlings every summer. Using the Fertilome with Gallery has really reduced the amount of chamberbitter seedlings that are sprouting each year. By hand-pulling the seedlings that do sprout I have almost brought the problem under complete control.

A hard to find product in stores so I was happy to find on DoMyOwn website. No hassle order, shipping and delivery. Time will tell the effectiveness of product which was easy to apply.

I received this product in 2 days after ordering, but won't know how it does until around May.

It's hard to review something like this when you've never tried it before and only time will tell if it works or not. But it was a great buy compared to just purchasing Gallery and it was easy to spread, so fingers crossed that it works like a charm! We'll see!

The product is priced fairly and shipped quickly. My spreader isn't listed on the bag. I sent an email and received a prompt recommendation for the proper setting. I am very pleased with the overall experience.

Absolutely demolished the chamberbitter infestation I had. Applied in the fall and again in the spring and not a single chamberbitter came up. WORTH EVERY CENT! Will be laying down again in the fall just to make sure nothing gets through. I didn't treat my roses and of course I have a few ones pop up there but this stuff is amazing.

I have been using DoMyOwn products for some time and have been very satisfied. However I was very disappointed with this product. I put it out as directed. But after several weeks the only broadleaf weeds it worked on was Dollar weed, and that wasn't really great. It didn't do anything to my dandelions or my large leaf clover etc, I resorted to Scotts Southern weed and feed which did hit the dandelions and clover about 80% effective.

Spread Ferti on lawn and weeds are still plentiful. Bad purchase

Applied the Ferti-Lome Broadleaf Weed Control herbicide and have not noticed any new weeds appearing in my lawn. It's my first time using it and so far so good!

Your response to previous review about spreader settings is a cop-out. Other manufacturers of lawn products do list settings and you can too. Such settings are always helpful as a guide.

Great product. I would recommend it. I had a huge crop of weeds this year due to the abundant rain fall. We have had 2X our annual rain fall. My weed crop was dying within one week. Weed and feed did not do that. I like Fertilome products and have used them for many years.

I had some late fall broad leaf weeds come up, and I ran into an advertisement, and decided to give it a try.. it came in the mail a few days later. Used a Scott’s spreader and did my whole lawn. So far, so good… It worked just as advertised.

I've just put this preemergent out so can't yet say if it works to prevent the chamberbitter (mimosa weed) I get in the summer. The broadcast spreader directions were not clear to me. I used a hand held spreader, and the product poured out at what I believe was too high of a rate when I set the spreader to what I thought the package indicated.

The ingredient, Gallery, is the most effective pre-emergent product I have used in my yard. This year i was not able to find it anywhere except at Domyown. My order was shipped at no charge, and came in two days. I will definitely use Domyown again.

I used this product about 3 weeks ago. I have noticed that my neighborhood is now infested with dandelions. My property has been spared this year and i owe it to ferti-lome. I have had to hand pick a few dandelionsions but i am still very satisfied with the product. I also used another crabgrass pre emerant. I bought fertilome specifically to curb dandelions.
