Weeds and grass increase tremendously in these summer months with the longer sunlight and more rain. That is to be expected. So for those with low maintenance rock areas, it is good to remember their great usefulness in the winter months because of the need for no grass cutting. Also there is no need for fertilizer on those areas so they keep the fertilizer runoff into the lakes at a minimum, which keeps the lake cleaner. So, during the summer months there is just a little more effort required to keep a rock area looking good. Round-up can be used on a dry day and after a rain storm the weeds are easily pulled.
