Should I apply CGM again?

16 years ago

I put down CGM on April 14th when I saw the first forsythia bloom. The weather has been pretty cold and inconsistent here since then. We are supposed to get some warm settled weather in the next week to 10 days. I was going to follow the federal holiday schedule and put something down next weekend (probaly alfalfa pellets) but I was wondering if I should re-apply cgm. I think this week is the week the crabbys start their mean little life cycle.

Any thoughts?

YES. You can reapply as long as you think you might be in danger of weed seed germination.

But if you are overseeding this fall, don't apply it during fall.

Thanks guys.

Is it ok to apply to a newly seeded area (started about 1 month ago. has filled in nicely) as well?

Yes, I will be overseeding in the fall. This should be my last CGM this year
