Yeah, I went ahead and put mine down as well. Once soil temps hit 50-55, the weeds will be coming.

Is it already time to put it down for spring/summer weeds?

I got lazy once NillaWafer was born and now it looks like Les Miles has lost control of my back yard.

Depends on where you are. Keep an eye on soil temps if you have a probe. You'll want to get something down before it reaches 55 in your area. If you dont have a probe, you can look here for soil temp averages in your area to give you an idea.

It’s been 4 years now. ETA Almost 5.


It’s just on one side that’s low and gets a lot of shade. I was waiting for the weather to warm up to attack.

Soon. Looks like soil temps get to 55 first week of February there. I'd want to get something down this weekend if I were you.

What broadcast spreaders are you guys using. I don't want to spend the $$$ for a Lesco.

I've been closely monitoring temps. I'm locked and loaded and as soon as the 5 day average hits 55 I'm throwin down.
