It's best to put it down just before a single day of rain..... and not a downpour.  You want to water it into the soil, but not wash it away. 

The corn gluten is ON the little broken bits of corn...... you can also water it in with a hose, btw.  That might be the best way to do it on a little garden. 

I really love the Preen products.

Hopalong:
Thanks, Lighter.
What I meant (didn't make clear) was: how late before I do this?
End of October, something like that? (Zone 6.5-7)

thanks

If you're planting seeds, you should wait 12 weeks after Preen garden application.  There's a list of things you plant sooner...like broccoli, and some plants need to have at least 5 leavesbefore going into garden. 

You should look up info and see how to use, according to what you're planting.

I networks for you as well as it works for me.

Hopalong:
I'm not planting fall crops in the beds.
My plan is to pull everything up.

My thought about the Preen was it could be applied
all over the beds to prevent the weeds coming up.

Am I making sense? Maybe I still don't get it.

Ooof,
Hops

I'd apply the garden Preen NOW.....before a single rain OR water it in with a hose during dry times, Hops.

You're making sense BUT you'll want seeds to germinate in the Spring, right?

 You can't plant veggie seeds for 12 weeks after application, so you can apply Preen twice, every 3 months, before Spring IF you start now..... beds ready and presumably weed free in March for planting.

All Preen does is keep seeds from germinating.  Timing is important.
