I want to control crabgrass weed in my lawn & in tandem also feed my lawn. Is this the right product for me knowing am already in late spring now?

It depends on what part of the country you live in. This product will not kill existing crabgrass; it will only help prevent new seeds from sprouting. The question then is: has the crabgrass already re-emerged in your yard? If so, then it's too late this year for this product to help. If it hasn't re-emerged, then, yes, this product will help stop seeds from sprouting, and it will provide normal fertilizer for your law.

Most likely it's too late! This is a pre-emergent. It has no effect on crabgrass that is already growing, even though it states on the bag it will work for 4 weeks after germination... at least that was my experience. If you already see crabgrass in your lawn, you should find a post emergent product specifically formulated to kill crabgrass.

I Don't know because I don't know what Creeping Charlie is. I purchased this as a pre-emergent control for crabgrass within Hybrid Bermuda and Fescue lawns. It is effective if applied prior to crabgrass germination (Spring). It is not effective on existing crabgrass (Summer). You also need a wetting agent to mix it with.

I agree with "Abby". Most people want to kill clover where as I prefer it for my yard. The weed killer I use says I can plant after a few weeks, but I wait longer just to make sure. Google is always a great research tool.

It is strictly useful for one weed at a time. It is too time consuming to pull up multiple weeds. It is very good for larger weeds, but useless and time consuming for multiple weeds.

The best time to use Halts Crabgrass preventer+fertilizer is when the forsythia are blooming, which is April in the Northeast. As long as the crabgrass is not blooming, early May should be OK. If you do spread your crabgrass preventer in May, then your Weed&Feed; will have to be delayed, unless Weeds are not a problem for you

I am not a lawn professional, just a home owner. I usually use this product to spot spray the weeds, not the complete lawn. In those cases the product is concentrated on the weeds. I usually wait two days, and it works very good for me.

This will work fine for you, it will only kill grass. It is also labeled for vegetables. It will not kill weeds either, just grass. If you have more or technical questions try your county Cooperative Extension Office.

Well, it's pretty much the liquified version of the granules you can buy at organic suppliers for pre-weed control. That said, I just don't know whether it would have any negative impact on your growing strawberries. I wouldn't think so. I've used it solely for my lawn. If you can find the manufacturer, I'd give them a call.

We have Floratam grass and it works well, but less is better. If you use too much it stunts the grass for a couple of weeks but it is the ONLY product that works on weeds. We LOVE the stuff, just use as directed :-)

It is not for pre emergent. Pre emergent would state something like "prevents crabgrass". Any selective weed killer for lawns that mentions crab grass has a pre emergent and must be used at a very specific time of year to control pre emerged weeds.

This product deals effectively with weeds and crabgrass without harming your lawn provided you follow dilution instructions. The first application will help ridding good percentage of the weeds, then you should follow with a second application 3-4 weeks away then as needed.

It works great killing off the crab grass and the unadvertised part is it will make your lawn look emerald green too..Great product!!!!!!!!!!!Best I have used on my new lawn in 4 years of hard labor.

It will not kill turf grass. You would have to look on the list of weeds controlled to see if crabgrass is among the ones handles. Uniquely, it will handle violets and ground ivy that 24D will not touch.

This is a product I use to prevent weeds from sprouting from seed. So I would recommend you use live plants or slit the paper where you want to plant the seeds. Remember this will biodegrade each year. I love it because I do not have to use herbicides and I can still plant. However, the down side is until I get weeds under control in an area, I have to reapply it each year. I have an acre of untamed land and am slowly getting it under control.

This a granular form and you do put it down with a spreader. Excellent product. We have used it off and on for many years. It is the best product i have found to get crabgrass under control. It needs to be put down early before the crabgrass starts to germinate. This works better that the Halts mixture with the fertilizer in it. if you have any other questions just ask.

I use it for crab grass in spots all over my yard. It kills what it touches, but good news/bad news it doesn't last. I've had to retreat the crab grass and clumps eventually get smaller, but I cannot see any grass loss. I will continue to use it for weeds.

Look for products advertised to control weeds in lawns. Ortho markets a line they call Weed-B-Gone. Many of these selective herbicides contain 2,4,D or Dicamba. Check with your local Extension office, or nursery for the best products in your area.
