Remove values of certain months of an R Data.frame?

I have the following data.frame where i want to remove the values of certain months replace by an empty cell (Not even NA)- I tried a few different things but didn't succeed. Any help would be appreciated.

library(lubridate)
library(tidyverse)

set.seed(123)

DF <- data.frame(Date = seq(as.Date("2001-01-01"), to = as.Date("2005-12-31"), by = "day"),
                 Value = runif(1826,1,5)) %>% 
                 mutate(Year = year(Date), Month = month(Date), Day = day(Date)) %>% 
  mutate(Month %in% c(1,2,11,12), Value) <- ""

Solution

it can be done in this way. note that since you assigned ' ' to a numeric column, it is no longer a numeric column.

DF <- data.frame(Date = seq(as.Date("2001-01-01"), to = as.Date("2005-12-31"), by = "day"),
                 Value = runif(1826,1,5)) 

DF %>%
mutate(Value=ifelse(month(Date)%in% c(1,2,11,12),'',Value))

sample from output;

   Date       Value             
   <date>     <chr>
