From the manufacturer

Stop Crabgrass Before it Starts

Early spring application can prevent crabgrass and problem weeds all season long. And rain, snow, or freezing weather will not affect performance, after application.

Apply in Early Spring or Fall

Apply in early spring when lawn is dry to prevent germination of crabgrass and other common lawn weeds before they start to spread. Can also apply in the fall (Aug-Oct) to prevent germination of Poa Annua, Chickweed and other common lawn weeds. See label for directions for use.

Tips for Lawn Care Success

First, regular feedings help your lawn look it’s best and provide the nutrients it needs to withstand the stresses of weeds, weather and activity.

Secondly, after you mow leave the grass clippings on the lawn! This allows grass to use water more effectively. Finally, water; utilize nature’s sprinkler as much as possible. When you do have to water, do it between 6 and 10AM - less water is lost to evaporation and more reaches the roots.

Great for preventing winter weeks
5 Stars
Great for preventing winter weeks
I live in Southern Oklahoma where there is dormant Bermuda grass hence the dead grass in the photo. I put this stuff out in October to prevent Hen Bit etc. and you can clearly see the difference between mine and my neighbors yard. I give it 5 stars. Plus any break through weeks I can glyphosate before the grass comes out of dormancy.
