How long will this last for an average sized vegetable garden? All season? How often apply?

I used it all growing season. I didn't need to use it often as we didn't get a lot of rain.

I can not give this a good grade. I bought a double supply of ladybugs..put them out in "shifts', as suggested with the nectar (following the directions on the bag) they did seem to like it at the time but then, within a week all the ladies were gone. Guess I didn't have enough insects to keep them satisfied.. A lot of good reviews but not from me sigh..lew

The lady bugs stayed around for most of the growing season. I sprayed the food where I needed the lady bugs to 'graze' only if they seemed to be wandering into areas that I didn't need them, like would see several on the shrubbery. It sees like I sprayed the food about once every week. I guess you would have to sort of feel your way as to you needs.

Not nearly the up to 8 weeks, especially if it rains. The last few seasons, half the sprayers don't work. So keep an old good one in case the new one doesn't work. Still the best option on the market that we can get.

Yes. That is what I used. Garden has been standing for 2 yrs with no rot. Be sure to use cedar or pressure treated wood. It will last longer

I think that I read that you can use the same soil mix for up to three years, with no special care in the winter, from what I recall. But I'm not sure about perennials. Perhaps you could ask them on their FB page or e-mail them directly.

The label does not directly address gardens. However, it does state that can be used around "trees and vines that will not bear edible fruit for one year....Should accidental contact be made, to foliage, immediately wash off with water". Based on that, I would not use this on a vegetable garden.

Personally I use the cheap stuff for my vegetable gardens. I don't feel like it makes the ground super hot but it is much thicker and durable than normal stuff sold in stores. So maybe not a good idea to use it for your garden.

That all depends on the weather. In the early summer, I have kept the cover on for 3 or 4 weeks. In the late fall, it depends on how cold it is getting and when it is time to give up for the year! One thing to remember is that the cover does cut down on the amount of sun the plants will receive. Hope this helps.

I don't have any bent grass, but lots of other bad stuff...but 2-3 wks seems to be the cycle. And you can respray after 21 days if you do an overall spray.

It should. It's a pre-emergent. and will last for about three months, then you'll have to re-apply. Frankly, if you don't want anything to grow there at all, just spread down some pure nitrogen, very thick. That will suck the life out of your ground and nothing will grow for several years. Your local garden center should have it. I found some at Home Depot.

I would really reccomend against it. It kills everything. I sprayed some of my house with it, and about 4 months later there is still things dying where I sprayed it. Probably wouldn't be safe if you want to eat the vegetables.

Apparently it is good for 1 season and they start dying off. I have a big bag that I will use until it is gone over the next few years. May not be as potent, so just use a little more next year.

Depending on rain, I usually reapply once every two months. But it depends on your neighborhood, rainfall, etc. I do add Gordon's Spreader Sticker to the bottle (one tablespoon) to help it adhere and stay water fast longer. This is part of my every two to three month regimen of spraying my foundation about two feet up on the wall and two feet into the lawn and landscape. Bugs can't crawl into your home that way and you don't have to worry about spraying chemicals on the inside. It's also great to spray generously around garage door openings, window sills, etc where you don't want easy access for insects. Depending on rain, I usually reapply once every two months.

It lasts about a month. Less if you have heavy rains. Make sure you coat everything when you put it down... plants, fence, walls, etc.

I have been using this for years, it depends on the weather, faster in warm days ,slower in winter. overall I always pre-chop veggies to speed things up either way. average is about 3-4 weeks. with two bins there is no rush.

It will depend on how often you put things in it and sustain the heat. But in general, I bought it last year and was able to generate some nice compost within 6 weeks. I have it filled now - both sides and didn't really tumble throughout the cold winter and have yet to break into it, so I'm excited to see. Since it heats up faster than others, it truely is a faster compost cycle, but I'm new at it. I love it and highly recommend it. Can't wait to use what I have for this Spring and start some fresh. Enjoy!

I am going to assume the question is "wears off easy". The great thing about this stuff is it requires very little to cover a large area and you don't have to apply it directly to the plant itself. We have a pretty large garden with a drip line irrigation system and I just lightly sprinkle it between the rows. I reapply after it rains. It does great!
