This invention provides for a time released weed treatment system for maintaining a weed free garden space. This system enables creation and easy maintenance of weed free garden areas to allow for stronger overall garden health as well as provide greater control and use of space in gardening. The time release-based weed treatment system uses an elongated planar strip impregnated with the time release weed control/treatment mechanism. A plurality of spaced-apart cross cuts is formed along longitudinal edges of the strip to allow bending of the strip into an arcuate or angular configuration. Anchoring pins are provided for securing the strip flat on the ground in the selected location.
