have you heard of Trifluralin?
it's a good one too.

Please never try or use altrazine, it would surely affect the germination rate and the growth of your veggies. There are few pre-emergent herbicide for veggies but many aren't effective enough e.g metalacton as active ingredient. You could just stick with post emergence but with good land preparation method, and weeding with herbicide, you would not need pre-emergence herbicide. Visit www.hybridveggies.com to read more
