Early Spring, Autumn (for winter weed control)? Since this product is a pre-emergent weed control is it only for use in Spring or Fall. Or are there benefits to applying in late Spring early Summer (beginning of June)?
The Anderson Turf Fertilizer 0-0-7 with .426?rricade can be applied in early spring or fall for a light fertilizing application along with weed prevention from the barricade it contains. There would not be a benefit to applying a pre emergent in the middle of summer since this is not when weeds germinate for the product to be effective. In the spring you would want to have it down at least a week or two prior to soil temps reaching 55 degrees consistently for a week, and in the fall around September when temperatures start dropping slowly leading into fall.
