Pre-Em in Flower Beds w/ stone

Post by Bales9er » April 13th, 2015, 9:28 am

Wondering if anyone has any experience using a liquid pre-emergent sprayed over flower beds that have decorative stone instead of mulch. I tried the granular preen last year but it didn't seem to get into all the nooks and crannies. Any info is much appreciated.

I'm curious about this, too - would spraying prodiamine onto areas of crushed rock help keep weeds from sprouting in crushed rock areas?

I do it every spring with sprayed prodiamine and it never seems to fully do the trick - But I keep doing it anyways lol
