I bought, but haven't applied yet, something by Bayer that's supposed to
kill weeds and crabgrass.

This is not a good time to apply herbicides. Overseed your lawn now
to reduce weeds/crabgrass next year. Do not use herbicides within 90
days of seeding.


In general, not true. There are many weeds that continue to grow all
fall even into winter and continue to make the lawn a mess and they
will still be there stronger than ever come Spring. Nothing wrong
with treating weeds now, it isn't even Fall yet. And while most
herbicides specify a min period until you can seed, it's typically
around 30 days or so, not 90. Most effective is to use spot
treatment, rather than a weed/feed type product.
