Why we built NHG
You might find it for less locally. Independent retailers often offer competitive pricing — some products are even cheaper in-store than online.
Real expert advice — not search results. Independent hardware staff know their inventory and the local conditions you're working in.
Keep the neighborhood working. Every dollar spent at an independent retailer returns roughly 3x more to your local economy than at a national chain.

About Product Overview

Guard your garden from weed competition with Preen Weed Preventer Granules 5 lb. This pre-emergent relies on corn gluten as its primary active ingredient to create a protective barrier that blocks the germination of weed seeds in garden beds. The rain-proof formulation stays effective through moisture, helping you maintain weed-free zones across multiple seasons without constant re-application.

What makes Preen Weed Preventer Granules 5 lb unique

  • Active ingredient: Corn gluten serves as the pre-emergent barrier, specifically targeting the germination of broadleaf weed seeds in your garden.
  • Format and packaging: Convenient 5 lb bottle designed for easy handling and even distribution in beds and borders.
  • Coverage: Treats up to 250 square feet per bag, making it a practical choice for vegetable plots, flower beds, and landscape borders.
  • Seasonality: Multi-season application that helps you stay ahead of weeds throughout the year.
  • Weather resilience: Rain-proof formula remains active after rainfall, reducing the need for re-application after wet spells.
  • Garden focus: Specifically formulated for garden use, helping protect established plantings and newly prepared beds alike.
  • Certifications: Not OMRI certified and not labeled organic, offering a straightforward, conventional option for weed prevention.
