When the forsythia blooms, it is time to use corn gluten on your lawn to keep weed seeds from sprouting!

Corn gluten is the all natural way to control weeds, no chemicals required.  Corn gluten is also a fertilizer and will green up your lawn.  Be sure to apply corn gluten every year to keep your weeds in check.  The trick to not using herbicides is to not let the weeds get going.  Using corn gluten every spring is a foundation to keeping those pesky weeds from gaining a stronghold in your lawn..  

One watch out, corn gluten will keep all seeds from sprouting, so do not use on any area where you want to plant seeds, like your garden beds.  On the other hand, if you have self seeders you want to control, corn gluten is perfect.
