Hello,
All of you grow tremendous plants I am sure. Personally, I can grow
crabgrass like nobody else in the neighborhood. Every year is a bountiful
crop. It's a new year in Zone 5: Rhode Island. This year, I am going to
win the battle.

I am going to overseed in late April/early May, but would like to kill any
crabgrass before it gets a chance to take hold. What are you all
recommending to put down right now? I think Tupersan is a good product to
use, but curious how the Lawn Rangers are handling their crabgrass
situations.

Crabgrass is an annual and has probably already germinated. Your best
bet is to mow properly, fertilize properly and overseed in the fall,
not the spring.

which will lead you to a googlegroups archive of the crabgrass faq I
wrote a number of years ago.
