Applications during these times are just right to prevent weed growth. Pre-emergent applied in spring will prevent weed growth through summer, and pre-emergent applied in fall prevents weeds through spring. A spring pre-emergent application can be made when your soil has warmed from winter and soil temperatures have warmed to at least 55 degrees Fahrenheit. This is based on the germination of forsythia. Depending on your geographical location, this can be between February and March. A fall pre-emergent application can be made when your soil has cooled from summer and soil temperatures have cooled to below 70 degrees Fahrenheit. This is based on the germination of annual bluegrass. Depending on your geographical location, this can be between September and November.
