Does anyone have experience with Panicked! Crabgrass already popping up in Ridgewood - did I miss the pre-emergent window? (Context: First-time homeowner with a tall fescue lawn in Ridgewood NJ, applied prodiamine way too late and now seeing crabgrass everywhere after last week's heat wave.)? Looking for advice from Bergen County folks.

I've dealt with this before. Really depends on your specific setup and grass type.
