Directions for Use

How to use convenient shaker bag: Tear off bottom of bag at perforation and pull apart re-sealable closure to expose shaker holes. Hold bag by handle and shake to dispense. If product clumps, re-seal and drop onto hard surface. Zip seal at bottom for easy storage.

Garden: Prepare garden bed by turning under or pulling established weeds, then sprinkle by using the convenient shaker bag or apply by hand around bedding plants, flowers or shrubs. Rake lightly into soil. Weed Prevention Plus works best if applied, watered in, and allowed to dry for 2-3 days. If excessive rain occurs, reapplication may be necessary. It keeps working 4-6 weeks. Re-apply as needed. Do not apply on newly seeded areas. However, it can be used with confidence around transplants.

Lawn: Spread Weed Prevention Plus evenly over lawn grass using the shaker bag, by hand, or in spreader. Avoid any bare spots where you are re-seeding. Sprinkle in cracks on sidewalks and driveways. Weed Prevention Plus works best if applied, watered in and allowed to dry for a period of 2-2 days. If excessive rain occurs, reapplication may be necessary.

Application Rate: Apply 5 lbs. per 250 sq. ft. (25' x 10') to turf or garden soil. If you choose you can use twice the recommended rate for eve better control with no fear of burning our plants.

When to Apply: your first lawn application should be in the early spring, 3-5 weeks before weeds begin to sprout. This is about the time the crocus and daffodils are blooming in your area. Re-apply in late summer when temperatures turn cooler to control late season weeds. Apply to gardens at any time.
