| I heard various saying about the time to put pre-emergent out. Some say mid September, some mid October, and some on Halloween.
I am located 45 minute drive south of Atlanta in zone 7B. When exactly is the time to put the pre-emergent out? Thanks |

| A pre emergent is a product meant to stop a plant from continuing growth after it germinates so it needs to be applied early enough to prevent that from happening but not so early that the weather will dilute that material and render it ineffective. Just when you apply depends on what you are trying to suppress, but generally at least 7 days before your target "weed" will germinate. |
