Monterey Vegetable & Ornamental Weeder is not specifically labeled for spotted spurge.Once the weeds have emerged, the main product used for weeds and grasses in an edible garden is a Roundup type product, like our RoundUp QuickPro product, or the all natural product Avenger. These products do not leave a residual that could possibly be soaked up by the roots of your garden. Of course you do not want to get the RoundUp or Avenger product on any plants you want to keep. You should only direct it at the weeds you want to get rid of.
