Controlling Weeds
Thursday, 17 July 2008 09:46
Many growers (who are growing their garden mums in outdoor fields) may have a few greenhouses empty between crops. If so, it's a good time to do a thorough clean up, including removing existing weeds (either hand pulling isolated weeds) or using a post emergence herbicide such as glyphosate that can be used in an empty greenhouse between crops as well as outside greenhouses. However, both of these measures do not prevent reseeding of weeds. So, repair any tears in the weed block fabric or replace if needed.
