    I plowed an acre plot in May. There's some weed growth as of now in it but nothing to serious. Planning on plowing once more and then planting. Should I spray before I plow? Or will plowing suffice? Tryna save a ride out there and spraying before I have to go back and plow.

    If you plan to plow regardless, just plow it and save the chemical.

    Plant some winter wheat or rye around the perimeter of the plot will help prevent creep into the edges of the plot by grass and weeds.

    Unless you are licensed, it is illegal to grow weed in PA. Better move west :lol: Welcome to the forum!
