I thought pesticides for residential lawns and gardens were banned in Ontario?

[bkushner]

Too bad no stores in Alberta

[Trifid]

Doubtful you'll find this in Ontario as it contains "2,4-D" which is part of the new Provincial Cosmetic Pesticide ban:


GreenUp® Liquid Weed & Feed 15-2-3

Contents:
Available Phosphoric Acid (P205) - 2.0%
Soluble Potash (K20) - 3.0%
2,4-D (present as amine)(actual) - 0.94%
Mecoprop-P (present as amine)(actual) - 0.47%
Dicamba (present as amine)(actual) - 0.09%

For our friends in Manitoba, enjoy your weed free lawns and parks (while you can) as ours look like hell --- and are making my allergies 200% worse than normal (I think that the Reactin lobbyists were behind this whole scheme)

Actually many people are allergic to grass. Very few have allergies to dandelions. So more dandelions, less grass is good news for allergy sufferers.

I have turned my front lawn into perennials, bark chips and flagstones. Much less work than lawn anyhow and looks more attractive IMO. We get lots of compliments.

dandlions are a type of weed....there are also ragweeds and crab grass which is also not controlled in parks right now....allergy sufferers hates ragweeds...

I asked my cousin in Winnipeg to check to see and he says they banned pesticides a couple years ago too. Checked Quebec too, same thing.

I don't know where to score my lawns 2-4D fix now.

Corn Gluten Meal in liquid form is available and working for me. I picked up some LiquiGold at Rona for about $40 and it was enough to cover my Lawn. It prevents any seed from germinating for ~6 weeks. I sprayed it just as the Dandelions were going white and don't have many. Liquid form is apparently better as the solid form attracts birds who eat it (since its a Corn byproduct).

Over seeding and coring in the early spring will help as the new grass will out compete the weeds if the lawn is properly aerated - just make sure to give the grass seeds a few weeks before using the Gluten. As soon as you see small grass leaves, you're good.

Another option if you keep having problems is to establish a natural grass and clover lawn.

The real problem is the parks, as not only are they overrun with Dandelions, they goldenrod and other allergenic weeds are growing unchecked and the size for this time of year is ridiculous.

I guess you prefer drinking poison that eventually works it's way into the water system?

There are more natural ways to take care of the weeds - pull them, over seed.. my lawn looks great, pesticide free

does Weed n Feed has expiry or best-before date?

Should I water before/after fertilizing?
