[quote=Anonymous]The only real way to prevent crabgrass is to put down Halts or similar, and the window for doing that closed probably a week ago. Some will say corn gluten is a natural alternative, and it does work, but it needs to be applied on a specific date and that too has probably passed. The alternative now is a post-emergent herbicide, or hand-pulling. Next fall, renovate the lawn and let the grass grow a little longer. Longer grass crowds out the light for crab-grass. Also, when renovating de-thatch and aerate, that also will keep the crab-grass at bay.[/quote]
