You'll see amazing results in three hours and dead weeds and grass by morning. This product will not harm the environment, animals, or man. Premerge: This weed control product had natrually occurring substances which inhibit the growth of seeds tiny feeder roots. Apply early spring 3-5 weeks before the weeds being to sprout.

Electra: What Super Thrive lacks in packaging aesthetics, Electra makes up for with its charming white paper bag covered with red and green lettering and drawings.
