I love Preen. Someone recommned I try Preen about two years ago. PREEN WORKS!!!!If you want an easy way to keep those weeds out of your garden or out of your lawn preen is your answer. I would recommend that you research first as there are a few varieties of cream that are used for different applications. There is a Preen that is safe for fruits and vegetables there is another one that's good for flowers and there is another one to use on your lawn. I use the one on my garden that is safe for flowers and it does amazing. I sprinkle it on in April and again in July and my garden stays weed free all summer long it's amazing. I recently purchased the lawn variation but I have not tried it yet so I cannot comment but I will definitely revise this review Once I tried the lawn version.

I'm mad at myself for not trying this sooner. It was a game changer for my mulched beds and all but eliminated the need for weeding, whereas I spent hours on upkeep in years prior. I'm going to use this even more liberally next year. The process is easy to understand and follow, and I appreciated that you didn't have to wait a long time before it was safe for pets and kids. My master gardener mother always uses this and I should have picked it up sooner.

After reading the many positive reviews about Preen, I decided to purchase a 5 lb. container. I have a new construction home with large areas of bedding plants as landscaping. The plants are growing quite well... but so are the weeds. I needed some help in controlling these unwelcome little pests.As clearly stated on the packaging, Preen is only a weed preventer. It does not kill existing weeds. To be effective, ALL weeds must first be completely removed (including the roots).This was no small chore. The weeds in my front landscaping had been growing for several months... right along with my bedding plants. However, after several days of my weed pulling, the front yard areas were totally weed free.The 5 lb. Preen container has a flip-down spreader built into the top lid. It actually works surprisingly well for smaller areas. After applying 5 pounds around one area, I decided to purchase an additional 22 lb. bag (a bit spendy) to finish the job. To apply Preen on larger areas, I used my new Scotts Wizz electric hand-held spreader -- a fantastic upgrade over my old hand crank spreader.The 5 lb. container plus an entire 22 lb. bag was required to treat my front landscaping with proper coverage. This turned out to be a bigger expense than the coverage calculations suggested. As directed, I thoroughly watered after applying Preen.After one month, some new weed growth was obvious. Naturally, these weeds needed to be removed by hand. By the second and third month after applying Preen, the frequency of weed growth is about 50% less than before Preen. I am still routinely pulling weeds, but about half as many.Does Preen work as advertised? Maybe. There are no signs of Dandelions, so it seems Preen is more effective on some weeds than on others. However, about a half-dozen different types of weeds continue to sprout -- but the weed population is about half the number compared to before using Preen.By my math, a gardener charges $160 to come out and weed my front landscaping. The required amount of Preen costs about half of that amount -- and is stated to be effective for only 3 months. If I place any value on the hour or so it takes me to thoroughly apply Preen weed preventer (not even counting my weed pulling time), it's about a break-even proposition. I suspect I may be just trading dollars when purchasing Preen... but I'm pulling about half as many weeds. Go figure?

I have a huge weed pop up problem that I have to keep controlled II have a lush yard with lots of plants trees and foliage and foliage and flowers weeds will strangle good plants so it's very important to have a you're certain to have a good control factor especially now that round up is out of the question something that is time released at last a few months even better. The only drag is you have to start from a clean slate I'm a clean slate it will not do anything to weeds that are already coming up I mean up or exist it will not kill the seated trees that try to grow grow those have to be pulled out early before they get too rooted i The little scoop with the holes and it makes tossing it around quite easy I will say though if you have a fairly large yard it's going to take a couple of these which does get pricey. Even more importantly you need to maintain every 3 to 4 months. The product itself works pretty well. I've been using it for 2 years now. I can recommend it.
