Note, areas that get more sun or are near concrete or brick might warm up faster than other areas. So you're better to do it a little earlier than too late.
$20 of this product now will save countless hours and $ later trying to remove crabgrass.
Pre-emergents should be applied at least twice a year. As previously mentioned, they should be applied in the spring before the ground temperature reaches 55 degrees Fahrenheit. Then it should be applied again in the early fall after temperatures begin to come down.

But don't put this down if you are going to put down grass seed! If you do, then the seeds won't grow - the pre-emergent prevents their growth. If you have green like I do in my lawn (poa annua in my bermuda grass in NC), I will spray the bad boys with Roundup at this point - I won't have green grass until mid-May. Also check with your extension agent or your local ag school - they will have some good opinions.

I should have clarified. For the spring application, you should apply before the soil temps reach 55 degrees for roughly 5 days.

One popular strategy is to spread about half the amount in early spring and then the rest about 4 weeks later to get maximum coverage throughout the summer.
You don't have to do it this way, and instead apply it all at once in early spring, but then it starts breaking down by mid summer when crabgrass germination is in full swing. Doing a split application will help keep the protection on for longer into the season.
