So you say leave them out until I see a problem? I also worried about putting them in early as I am just now starting to have grass in along the water line as well as the 4 Pickerelweed I just planted.


Ask those people who are saying to put them in a specific, pointed question - "Why do you recommend putting them in before any weeds are there and not wait until I get some weeds established to see if the weeds would be a problem first?" Sit back and pay close attention to their answer.
