Spraying broad-leveled weeds should not be done in which period?

• A. January-February
• B. March-April
• C. May-June
• D. July-August

Answer: (B)

Timing matters when using broadleaf weed herbicides. You want to apply when weeds are actively growing and when the spray won’t harm nearby desirable plants or pollinators. March and April are when many plants are flowering or about to bloom, and bees are out foraging. Spraying during this period increases the risk of harming pollinators and staining or injuring flowering ornamentals or fruiting plants. Weather in early spring is also unpredictable, which can reduce control effectiveness and raise drift risk. So, avoid this period and plan applications for later spring or fall when weeds grow actively, pollinator activity is lower, and conditions are more stable.
