One of the sourest phrases that can be directed at a child or adult is “I told you so!” Whether you touch a hot match, leave tools out in the rain or lift cinder blocks all afternoon, someone is usually ready to exclaim “I told you so!” when you complain about the experience.
In my line of work, I’m forced to reluctantly deliver “I told you so!” when gardeners ask me about their problems with annual weeds. The theory of controlling them is simple: maintain a vigorous turf so they can’t get established … and use a pre-emergent herbicide if they get ahead of you.
Get your pre-emergent down before March 1st to prevent summer weeds!
