So i usually do it manually, removing weeds in some of the flower beds we have around the house. I have a 300' line of arborvitaes though (In a mulch bed).. and just too much work.
I just put in new landscaping in front by our large picture window (bushes and hydrangeas with 2 yards of mulch) and want to stay ahead of weeding.
So was looking at using preen for it's 'safe to use' on established plants. But not sure how good it'll be and how many weeds it'll actually prevent from sprouting. I started reading and looks like barricade was number one choice?
So I am curious what everyone uses for their flower beds/landscaping beds. Something that won't hurt the bushes, hydrangeas, arborvitaes.... I can reapply every few months and save me from weeding so much.
Preen is pellet form and just water in I believe. Barricade I already buy for the 2 acres of yard. So I can just mix in a smaller sprayer for these areas.
What do you all do?
