Re: Bio-control for dandelions expected soon


I don't believe corn gluten meal inhibits germination of tap-rooted 
plants such as dandelions.  CGM only destroys a plant's ability to 
form anchor roots, and that defeats weeds such as crabgrass.  As I 
understand it. Margaret Lauterbach


   As we all know...I hope...a well tended  and cared for lawn (with little
>or no pesticides) can be lush, green and  therefore...mostly weed free.  The
