Scott’s Turf Builder Halts Crabgrass Preventer with Lawn Food is a granular preemergent herbicide combined with lawn fertilizer designed to stop crabgrass before it invades your lawn while feeding grass for fast green-up after winter. Apply it early in spring before soil temperatures reach 80°F to prevent crabgrass and other unwanted grassy and broadleaf weeds from taking root, protecting your lawn throughout the growing season.
This dual-purpose product eliminates the need for separate weed prevention and feeding applications. The included lawn food jumpstarts healthy green growth as temperatures warm, while the preemergent barrier keeps crabgrass, chickweed, Poa annua, and similar invasive species from establishing. One 40.05-pound bag covers up to 15,000 square feet, making it an efficient choice for spring lawn care.
