Can I apply The Anderson's Crabgrass Preventer with 2% Team Herbicide at the same time as seeding?
I just planted Kentucky blue grass but have seen crabgrass growing as well. Hopefully this does not kill Kentucky blue grass.
Answer:
For cool-season lawns such as fescue, bluegrass or ryegrass, early to mid spring or early fall is ideal for planting. Make sure to plant when the daytime temperatures are between 60 - 75 degrees and no lower than 50 degrees at night. It would not be advised to apply weed prevention such as The Anderson's Crabgrass Preventer with 2% Team Herbicide to newly seeded lawns as this could inhibit grass growth. The turf needs to be well established, mowed a few times (allowing the timeframe prior to seeding printed on the product label as well) prior to application to lawns as directed.
