Scotts MAX Crabgrass Preventer with Lawn Food is a Costco-exclusive premium formula that prevents future lawn weeds including crabgrass, foxtail, Poa annua, chickweed, oxalis, barnyardgrass, fall panicum, and spurge. This innovative pre-emergent weed killer plus fertilizer strengthens lawns with more essential nutrients than standard Scotts Turf Builder Halts Crabgrass Preventer, including kelp meal, worm castings, iron, and manganese.

One 37.38-pound bag covers 14,000 square feet. Apply to a dry lawn in early spring before the third or fourth mowing and before temperatures are regularly in the 80s. For best results, the lawn should receive one-quarter to one-half inch of water from rainfall or irrigation within 2-3 days after application. Rain, snow, or freezing conditions after application will not affect product performance.

Spreader settings: Scotts broadcast/rotary spreader at 3, Scotts drop spreader at 6.25, Scotts Wizz spreader at 3.75. Do not apply to Dichondra or Bentgrass lawns. Do not rake, aerate, seed, or sod for 4 months after application to avoid disturbing the protective soil layer. Do not apply more than twice per year. On newly sprigged areas, wait 5 months before application. Keep people and pets out of the area during application and until dust has settled.
