Should I spray weed killer before or after mowing?

You can spray the weeds after mowing, but it’s better to mow before you spray them. Cutting the grass with a lawnmower will shred the weeds, making the herbicide less effective. It’s also much harder to pull out the weeds by their roots if they’re cut by a mower.

What time of day should you spray weed killer?

Systemic herbicides work best when applied late morning, midday and in the afternoon in cool or cold climates. Plant growth slows down at dusk and speeds up again as the sun rises the following day. Heavy early morning dew can cause herbicides to run off, so it’s best apply them after dew has evaporated.
