Corn gluten meal (CGM) is a popular organic herbicide and fertilizer in gardening. Here are some of its uses:

1. Pre-emergent Herbicide: CGM can prevent the germination of weed seeds when applied to the soil. It inhibits root formation in seedlings, making it effective for controlling weeds like crabgrass and dandelions.

2. Fertilizer: It is rich in nitrogen, which benefits plant growth. When used as a fertilizer, CGM can improve soil fertility and promote healthy plant development.

3. Soil Amendment: Adding corn gluten meal to the soil improves its structure and moisture retention, enhancing overall soil health.

4. Natural Pest Deterrent: Some gardeners use CGM to deter pests due to its natural properties, although its effectiveness can vary.

5. Companion Planting: CGM can be used in conjunction with other organic materials to boost nutrient availability in the soil.

For best results, it’s recommended to apply CGM at the right time in the growing season, typically before weeds begin to germinate.
