Hi, What does the rate depend on? I would normally Scott's Turf and Crab on 20,000 sq ft. What rate for my location? Need to determine how much to order.
Rates depend on your lawn type. Per the product label for Hi-Yield Crabgrass Weed Control on Northern Cool Season grasses, you would apply 1 3/4 to 3 1/5 lbs per 1000 sqft. Apply in the spring, 1 to 2 weeks prior to the onset of conditions favorable for annual grass weed seed germination. This will vary from region to region and you should contact your local cooperative extension office to enquire when the appropriate application time would be in your area. The product label also contains spreader settings to refer to. If your spreader is not listed, Scott's has a tool on their website that might help.
