Q&A – Will corn gluten control weeds in carrots?

Question:
Will corn gluten control weeds in carrots?

Answer:
Corn gluten meal will control weeds in carrots but – just like all herbicides – you must follow the directions. Corn gluten meal is a pre-emergent herbicide that prevents seedlings from developing roots. You must wait to apply corn gluten meal until the plants are two to three inches high. Also, applying too much will encourage weed growth. Once again, follow label directions.
