Crabgrass is no friend of your lawn. It absorbs the essential nutrients and moisture that a garden requires giving no room for other grass to grow. You'll see crabgrass persisting and growing even in bad conditions. Crabgrass is exceptionally persistent. It provides a kind of residence for pests.
When crabgrass starts to grow, it seeks more space to spread. During hot weather, crabgrass almost presides over a lawn because it becomes hard, for that is the weather it loves.
