Description

Weed and Feed 18-0-4 with .164% Dimension Crabgrass Preventer 40lbs

Weed and Feed 18-0-4 with .164% Dimension Crabgrass Preventer is a strong choice for established lawns that need both feeding and crabgrass prevention in one application. It is designed for customers who want to improve turf color and vigor while helping stop crabgrass and other listed weeds before they become a bigger problem.

With an 18-0-4 fertilizer analysis and .164% Dimension, this product works best as part of a spring lawn program on established turf. It is especially useful for homeowners who want a simpler weed-and-feed approach instead of buying separate fertilizer and crabgrass preventer products.

Best Time To Use

• Primary window: early spring, before crabgrass germinates
• Connecticut timing: usually around forsythia full bloom through lilac or flowering dogwood bloom
• Soil temperature rule of thumb: around 55°F
• Extra flexibility: Dimension can still help on very young crabgrass in the earliest post-emergent stage

For most Connecticut lawns, this is mainly a spring product. If you miss the window and crabgrass is already mature, this is no longer the right tool for the job.

Application Rate Guide

• Typical homeowner rate: about 4 lbs per 1,000 sq. ft.
• 40 lb bag coverage at that rate: up to about 10,000 sq. ft.
• Heavier full-rate program on similar 18-0-4/.164% Dimension products: about 5.5 to 5.6 lbs per 1,000 sq. ft.
• 40 lb bag coverage at that heavier rate: about 7,100 sq. ft.

If your goal is basic spring prevention on a home lawn, the lighter rate is usually the practical starting point. If your goal is a stronger full-rate application for heavier pressure or longer residual performance, follow the exact bag label and spreader settings for your product.

Important Use Notes

• Use on established lawns only
• Do not use this as a starter fertilizer for brand-new seed
• Best results come when it is applied before weed germination or when crabgrass is still extremely young
• Watering or rainfall shortly after application can help activate the pre-emergent barrier
• Always follow the bag label for exact spreader settings, timing, and all use restrictions

Why Customers Choose It

• Feeds the lawn and helps prevent crabgrass in one pass
• Good fit for established cool-season lawns in spring
• Useful for customers who want a simpler lawn program
• Can still help if applied slightly later than a strict pre-emergent, as long as crabgrass is still very young
• Strong choice for homeowners who want both weed prevention and turf color improvement

Need Something Different?

If you are starting a new lawn, overseeding, or installing sod, use a starter product instead, like our Mesotrione Starter Fertilizer with Crabgrass Preventer 21-22-4 or Starter Fertilizer 50lbs. If you need post-emergent broadleaf weed control on established turf instead of crabgrass prevention, see Weed and Feed 19-0-6 with Lockup. You can also browse more options on our Fertilizers page.
