We like to give frequent showers for Peaches..

You know I am talking about weed sprays..

Here we go with a long list of weed sprays. I honestly feel like we going overboard in killing weeds. Note to myself: Research more and talk to people. But, for now, we will go ahead with Elsa and Gary Layne's recommendations.

ASC Plus -- Buffer Activator
Alecto -- Grass Killer
Galigan -- Broad leaf Killer
Pro 90 -- Surfactant (This is like a toner in make-up cosmetics!)
Magnesium EDTA -- Micro Nutrient
Soil Bor -- Micro Nutrient (Water soluble form of Boron)
