Natural Herbicide: Why Is It So Effective Against Weeds?
There's a large movement towards organic, and from chemicals, with the strange belief that organic is less effective. That's not true. Corn gluten meal is not only good for a natural product; it is the best of any product. Here are 7 what exactly you need to understand about this natural herbicide.
What it does: This corn by-product is really a powder that attacks and dries in the roots of seedlings. When a weed first sprouts, the root withers and the plant dies. Killing before the weed becomes a plant is the best solution. Now you do not have to pull it out by hand or be worried about getting all of the roots out.
Simple to use: Apply on your yard and water in, following the package directions. You don't need to wear gear to safeguard you against chemicals and no need to keep animals or people from the area. It's an easy, safe, simple, natural herbicide.
Works on many pest plants: From crabgrass to dandelions, lambsquarters and bentgrass, this can stop them all from starting. It's so effective, it will even work on grass seed, so be sure to use it on a recognised lawn and wait 60 days before overseeding.
Safe for those environments: Not only can you use your yard immediately and safely, there isn't any danger of run-off to streams with this particular natural herbicide. It's not a pollutant of any kind; it's just a food by-product that works on weeds before they begin.
It is also a fertilizer: Making life even easier, this can be a true weed and feed. With 9% nitrogen, which lasts as much as 3 months, your adult plants is going to be well-fed. Not only will they no longer have to compete with weeds, they're getting food simultaneously. You save one step with both of these benefits within this natural herbicide.
What not to do: The only 2 things to avoid are planting seeds and poking holes. Because this functions by drying up new roots, any seeds you plant will also be attacked. Corn gluten meal behaves like a blanket of protection over your yard, so avoid punching holes in it. If you are considering aerating, select a different time for you to achieve this.
Timing is important: To everything there's a season, even for weeds. Plan your attack for the time of year that the plant pest sprouts. For example, crabgrass is active in the spring, and that is the time to apply this preemergent. Dandelions are active in the spring and fall, so you can apply at either time or both.
Science is bringing us new tools every day, and not all of them are polluting chemicals or second-best choices. Corn gluten meal is a superb example of a scientific discovery that's a huge benefit in the war on weeds. It is organic, easy to use, safe for people and pets, and effective. There is no 'settling' to find the best in organic products, this natural herbicide is the best choice of all.
