The weather is warmer, and the days are getting a little longer. It's time to get outside and prepare your garden and lawns for Spring. Enjoy a weed-free lawn by applying a pre-emergent to prevent Summer broadleaf and grassy weeds. Green Light Crabgrass Preventer can be easily applied using a fertilizer spreader. Make your home instantly pop with color by creating container gardens. Simply select an appropriate-sized container, choose a well-blended potting soil, secure plants with similar light and watering requirements, plant them, decorate with mulch and enjoy! For those of you who choose to garden with a purpose, start your own vegetable and herb garden today for Summer harvesting.
With a little sweat equity, you'll be enjoying the fruits of your labor in no time!
