                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello,</p><p>I have a PT deck built 8/2018 that has one coat of oil-based semi- transparent Armstrong Clark on it and has multiple unstained deck boards that were replaced in DEC as well as vertical framing that I never stained last Fall.  Question is should I stain now mid-March as trees are just starting to bud and pollen is starting or wait until MAY/JUN/JUL or SEP/OCT/NOV?</p><p>Thanks for the advice.</p>]]></content:encoded>
