Monitoring soil temperatures: For optimal preemergence crabgrass control do not apply materials until soil temperatures are between 55 and 59° F. Materials applied earlier can lead to polluted runoff and wasted money because crabgrass does not germinate until soil temperatures, at 2 inches below the surface, are between 60 and 64° F. In some places, surface runoff loaded with sediments, chemicals, oil, gas, salts, and fertilizers does not flow into sewage treatment plants and may go directly into our water system.
