It's a great weed inhibitor.<br /><br />BANGCHIK: I suppose banging on the side of my wheelbarrow with a shovel would make for a poor alarm clock?

They look very quite, but the bulbs are busy pushing through the soil to check if snow and frost has gone. ~bangchikBangchik and Kakdahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12539360678677230463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3268559567958002671.post-64754438881722888872010-02-20T21:26:34.297-08:002010-02-20T21:26:34.297-08:00Thanks Jenn.

Some of the weeds are already starting to go to seed! Anything to control future weeds...

It will however kick a few dandelions to the curb for ya. <br /><br />And if there's ever a magic powder that can be sprinkled on just weeds to make them disappear entirely you can bet I'll be first in line!Just Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15008462659487802315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3268559567958002671.post-69641567045934574112010-02-20T20:58:24.539-08:002010-02-20T20:58:24.539-08:00Corn gluten?
