So is Trimec, I am a student studying Turf Grass management and the last 2 courses I have worked on have sprayed Trimec for crabgrass and dallasgrass. It will probably be the new MSMA once it is pulled

Hang on to that MSMA-good as gold. Crabgrass will be emerging within the next few weeks. You need to get it now. I been using Tru Green Lawn Service and my yard is "purty". Spray something now to stop it.

Crab grass, msma wont kill it roundup will kill it but you will have to apply it more than once the same with 24d, Image is the stuff you need. Right now I would mix round up or 24d plus image and some sort of pre-emergant. I like weed impead (it has a marker dye in it so its easier to get full coverage), mix the roundup (24d), image, weed impead, all in the same tank and this will take care of all things green right now, and unless you have alot of winter or shade grasses, if its green now you don't wont it anyway................just my .02
