Crabgrass

19 years ago

Hi,

We installed new sod last month, Tiff 419 Bermuda. After a lot of rain, we are finally able to start caring for it. The problem is there are already patches of crabgrass in several areas. What is the best way to treat existing crabgrass on a new lawn without damaging it? I am quite irritated that this is an issue already considering the amount of money we paid to sod 1/2 an acre...

Thanks

A nickname for soil is "seed bank." You probably had plenty of seed and now it's going bonkers.
