Stopping weeds before they sprout is easier—and smarter—than fighting them later. In this episode, Rodney explains how pre-emergent works, when to apply it, and why timing is everything. Listeners will learn how to keep their property weed-free using science-backed methods, how to apply pre-emergent safely, and what to avoid when it comes to wind, weather, and watering. If you’re tired of pulling weeds, this episode is your new best friend.

Key Takeaways:

• Timing is Everything – Why two to three applications per year make the biggest difference.
• Pre vs. Post-Emergent – How prevention leads to less chemical use overall.
• Weed Fabric & Pre-Emergent – Why both are better together than alone.
• Safe for Pets & Plants – How to apply without harming animals or existing landscaping.
• Avoiding Common Mistakes – When not to spray and why wind and moisture matter.
