It's mid-November and there's one thing lingering at the back of all gardener's minds: frost. Now is the time to get those final pre-frost tasks done to ensure your yard is prepared for the winter months. With time being so precious, you may be wondering if you actually need to get rid of weeds before frost, or will the coldest temps kill them off for you.
When it comes to the fall gardening checklist, you may be surprised to hear getting rid of weeds is actually something to prioritize. A common misconception is that hard frost will kill of weeds for good. In actual fact, many perennial weeds and annual weed seeds will overwinter and return as the temperatures warm up again in spring.
