Not really 53 bucks for original price. The one pack regular price is 19 and change so two pack would be under 40 so it's a slight deal.

This Scotts crabgrass preventer is valued for early-season pre emergent control and lawn feeding in one bag, with roughly three months of prevention and coverage up to 5,000 square feet per bag. It is also described as useful on lawns and some landscaped areas, though timing matters because warm weather or soil above 60 degrees can make application too late. The main cautions are that it can kill new fall overseeding and that weed and feed formulas are viewed as less effective than separate products. The deal is seen as strong on price versus recent alternatives.

  • The product primarily targets crabgrass and also helps some other grassy weeds.

  • The product can work well on grass and lawns for crabgrass control.

  • Split applications can support season-long coverage when timing and mixing are handled carefully.

  • The deal price can be competitive versus other nearby options for similar crabgrass control.

  • Application timing can be unforgiving, since heatwaves can make it too late to rely on prevention.

    alphawaveSweetT23

  • The product does not feed, so weed-and-feed expectations can lead to disappointment.

    eliteconcept

  • Overseeding in the fall can result in the pre-emergent killing new growth.

  • Some listings may show reduced bag weight for the 13.35-lb size, so coverage value may vary.

If you're experiencing the heatwave, it's already too late to apply. If you're cold now, and soil temps are below 60F, apply asap.

You're probably right. Scotts does make a pre-emergent that is compatible with new growth. However, it only gives 6 weeks of prevention, rather than 3 months like this product does.

Yeah. Look for wdg65 prodiamine. 5lbs for $79. Should be good for about 1lb per acre give or take, depending on need.

You need a liquid sprayer though. But the investment in that quickly pays you back since $79 gets you more and better coverage

Never hear of the stuff, but my lawn needs help. Going to go on a whim and try it. Will need to read up on this stuff.

Stock up on fertilizer while you can. The price of oil directly impacts fertilizer production. It's already hitting farmers hard.

Its much better than this scotts crap. Buy your self a small scale so you can weigh the amount. That's the tricky part. Mix in a bucket well before putting into the sprayer.

Pro tip. Apply at 1/2 the rate about a month apart... that's called split apps for all season coverage

Usually in North Carolina it's safe to just put this down by Valentine's Day, but we had some ridiculously warm days (80s) which is all the crabgrass needs to start sprouting and once it does it's over nothing you can do about it except post-emergent with Quinclorac. That works well, but the year is so much easier when getting the pre-emergent down in time instead.
