            | Iowegian | Anamosa, IA  [email protected] | The only herbicide I use in the patch is glyphosate (roundup).  Pre-plant to knock down weeds.  Then shielded spray as the plant grows.  Just don't get it on the plants. I may use some other preemergence around the electric fence to keep weeds from shorting out the wires. Either Preen or Princep.  Just a very narrow band so it doesn't get near any plant roots. | 3/10/2009 1:58:43 PM | 
		
            | WAIT TIL NEXT YEAR | So. Maine | Tim , up here I use one but only on the rows of field pumpkins . It's called Strategy and helps to control certain annual grasses and broadleaf weeds . | 3/10/2009 8:40:03 PM |
