Pre Emergent Application Timing 2013 - MN

10 years ago

Would like to see when others in the Midwest, specifically MN & WI, are planning to put down Crabgrass pre emergent?

It has been a colder than normal spring but it looks to be warming up significantly in the next week. I know that crabgrass begin to germinate when soil reaches 50 degrees for a few consecutive days. Local extension office has soil temps at 35 degrees as of 4/21/13.

Thanks

I do not know about your area but thought i'd give you my opinion anyway! Your local extension office should be able to tell you the usual timing for applying crabgrass control. Then if you consider using the chemical Dithiopyr (one brand name is Dimension) timing is not as important. This product works over a longer time and will also kill small seedlings.
