Gardening Reference? English/Spanish

Can't Post | Private Reply

Hello

I was wondering if any of you could recommend a good site translating gardening terms?
While my trusty dictionary may have general terms like herbicide, it wont have things like pre emergent herbicide.

Thanks

Todd

I'm not much into gardening terms but have found that the best way to translate technical terms, in general, is to ask a native speaker who's in that field. I have looked for dictionaries of technical terms online but haven't found anything useful.
Maybe someone at ACA would know the answer.

I have found it very useful to check labels on products in places like Home Depot, Wal-Mart, etc.

Can anyone tell we how to say timer for water systems in Spanish? I'm going to Home Depot and hope to find one there.

Better yet, does anyone know where I can find one Lakeside. I need a timer that attaches to the hose and runs on a battery.
