5-in-1 Weed and Feed Granules - 9.6 lb Bag | Kills Lawn Weeds & Crabgrass - Feeds, Greens, and Strengthens Lawn - Treats Up to 4,000 Square Feet

You can smell the chemicals in it, yes. But my crab grass is fading out of my yard. I usually use the name brand stuff, but I've started replacing that with the Bioadvanced line. They seem to work better than the big name lately and I've had better results. My lawn doesn't get a ton of shade, and this has really helped it start getting a dark green hue. Make sure you get this stuff watered in.

This product gets better results than the professional fertilizing companies I've used in the past. It gets rid of hard to eradicate weeds and lasts for several months. I suggest a few weeks after application using "Ironite" or a product that has the main or sole nutrient nitrogen for a really green lawn weed free. It's remarkable that the Bayer 5 in 1 eradicates crabgrass too. The only downside to the product is that it definitely has a chemical odor that lingers a a couple days or more. Pour the product into the spreader on cement so if you spill it won't destroy the lawn. Wear long sleeves, gloves, pants, goggles and maybe a mask. Your neighbors might think you're odd but hey better to be safe than have any adverse outcome from using any chemical. Keep pets off too for at least a couple days or until the odor goes away. Those are my suggestions for using this product a couple times of year versus multiple times fertilizing and doing it safely for a weed free, green (use a nitrogen nutrient), lush, professional looking lawn.

Everywhere I used it saw the grass grow better, although it did not fight some weeds effectively

More powder like that seems to spread more evenly. Noticed grass thickening within a couple of weeks.

Followed directions to a T. Applied with Scotts Speedy Green on #2 per on-line instructions (as bag did not include that spreader). Even the weather cooperated. Since first time using, I marked broad leaf weeds to gauge "effectiveness". Dandelion flowered several days after application as did clover. Absolutely NO effect on weeds what-so-ever! Extremely disappointed! Jury still out other purported effects but, that's not why I bought it - I wanted weed control. Not a lot of weeds but, I expected some effect (as experienced with other products). I do NOT recommend! The only thing it "killed" was my pocket book.

Used this product for the last 2 years with mixed results. Since weeds are typically not as big of a problem in zoysia lawns to begin with, this product has predictably done very well when it comes to weed & crabgrass prevention. Almost zero weeds or even crabgrass even though I'm surrounded by untreated neighboring lawns. However, my results as far as green-up & growth promotion & overall health of my lawn have been poor. Lawn has been ravaged by dollar spot/brown patch in each of the last 2 seasons. With such a short growing season, the dead spots don't have much time to regenerate before time's up on the growing season. Last year, after a liquid fungicide stopped the problem, there was only time for about 1/2 of the damage to recover. To tell the truth, I regret ever going with zoysia grass to begin with (now about 10 years ago) It was billed as low maintenance & has proven to be anything but that. Now, faced with the nightmare scenario of removing it with it's ridiculous root system, that's just not an option for a 68 YO man.

Love this. Easy to use, works well, lower cost than other places I checked

I’ve been using granule based weed killer for years, and this one outperformed other products I have used. You don’t need to use very much, so a little goes a long way. Just be patient and reapply as needed. It doesn’t happen overnight.
