Works exactly as advertised.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have emerald zoysia grass. It doesn't have a lot of weeds but the ones it has really stand out. This Turf Builder spreads easily, greens up quickly and takes out the weeds. As with all the products I have used from Scotts, it works!

The best product available for your yard.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've used this product in the past and it worked out very well for me. I hadn't used any feeding products in a couple of years. So my lawn was starting to get out of hand. The dollar weed was starting to grow again. I'm glad to have gotten a sample of the bonus s to apply in the front yard again. Now I just got to do the back. Easily applying with the drop spreader I used. Then water immediately after. Just like Scott recommend. I have a great looking yard in bout a week or so.

My lawn shows good results!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Six weeks ago I spread Scotts Turf Builder Southern Weed & Feed on my lawn. The result is very good. The grass recovered nicely after the winter rest benefiting from the feed component in the granules. There were many weeds in my lawn and the majority has vanished as a result of the included weed killer. There are a few persistent kinds of weeds remaining, which I hope will perish after a second treatment with the product.

Quality product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wouldn't use use anything but Scotts products. They provide high quality results with ease of application. My St. Augustine looks healthy, strong and with a deep green color. The weeds are disappearing just as the product describes.

This is stuff is the TRUTH!!

Southern newbie here, and let's just say my lawn journey hasn't been smooth sailing. I tried a couple of fertilizers based on research, but nothing seemed to work. Reviews on Bonus S were mixed, but desperate times call for desperate measures, right? Last year, I took a leap of faith and applied it to my front lawn, just before a heavy rain shower. Two weeks later, thicker green lawn. I was shocked. I had men from the neighborhood walk up to me and ask what I was using on my lawn. Yeah, that was a proud moment for me. The transformation was amazing, especially considering the state of everyone else's turf in the neighborhood. The builder's turf choice was full of weeds, a real eyesore. Replacing it wasn't an option, so I was determined to make it thrive. And with a little trial and error, I did! Yep. this year, I did the same, and my lawn is looking great, including the backyard. It's killing the weeds but there are a few stragglers as expected. To get rid of all your weeds, you need to add a pre-emergent in the spring and post-emergent in the late spring when the stragglers are small but actively growing.

I don't see ANY difference - actually got worse

I applied the product as recommended (in New Orleans here), actually applied a second time a week later. Dollar weeds are everywhere - I don't think it killed a one! I watered after applying, did everything as recommended on the package. I'm about to look online to see if there is any other recommended products - other than wait until it gets hot and those things die naturally.

reply from Consumer Services

We are sorry this product didn't control the dollarweed as expected. Although this product was used correctly, sometimes weeds fail to die and we can't always determine why. For best results, this product should be applied when daytime highs are consistently between 60 - 85 degrees for several days before and after the application. When temperatures are too cool, the weeds do not absorb enough of the product control them. We recommend that the weeds not be mowed for two days both before and after the product application. We want you to be confident in our products. For this reason, we offer a product guarantee to our consumers. At your earliest convenience, please contact us to see what can be done.

Killed much of my new bermuda seed

Seeded with Scott's Bermuda Seed about 2 1/2 months ago, grass was patchy but healthy and growing. Grass had become infested with various weeds and wild grasses found in Florida so I decided, after a lot of research, it was time to follow up with 'Southern Weed & Feed'; big mistake as it killed the weeds and some of the clover/nut grass but also did a huge number on my fledgling bermuda yard. I'll never use this again...beginning to highly question if I will continue with my Scott's yard app and account needless to say!

Our apologies that the Scotts Turf Builder Bonus S Southern Weed % Feed damaged your Bermuda lawn. Unfortunately this product is not registered for use on Bermuda lawns which is why the damage occurred. In order to successfully reseed you would need to wait at least 12 months. In order to try to reseed earlier, you would need to remove the top 2-4 inches of soil and replace with new 2-4 inches of soil. If you would like to discuss this further, feel free to call us at 888-270-3714. Refer to this review when calling.

Lack of weed control and information in an on the

Bought 2 5ksqft bags to treat my 3 yr in the works lawn that I have nursed back to health painfully. Southern weed an feed!!!!!! I am in Texas Bermuda grass people why is this not on the actual product "DO NOT USE ON BERMUDA GRASS".YARD IS COMPLETELY DESTROYED 100S IF NOT THOUSANDS DOWN THE DRAIN.Only reason I now know why is I went to the scot site and at the bottom of the product description. DO NOT USE ON BERMUDA GRASS. Complete negligence on Scott's part not to include this on the package. Complete scorched earth situation from what I have been told by Scotts reps can only lay sod now and only specific ones. Negligence complete and utter negligence. I expect a resolution and I expect to have a yard that I worked over 3 yrs and babied from seedlings to enjoy with my family. Disgusting product and southern lawn needs to be removed from the product. Oh not to mention the weeds are thriving in the dead grass they never missed a beat of growth as everything else died

Kills Weeds and Fertilizes Lawn

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have tried cheaper brands of weed and feed, but was never satisfied with the results. I guess the saying that you get what you pay for is true. Scotts Bonus S has always worked well and makes the lawn thicker and greener. It is easy to apply and the instructions are very clear. I have always been satisfied with the results of Bonus S.

Best Weed and Feed available

I live on west coast of Florida, dollar weeds were all over my St Augustine lawn. Lawn didn't look good, many bare areas where grass wasn't growing at all. Scott's Super Bonus Weed & Feed took care of the dollar weeds, after a few weeks, they started shriveling up. My lawn's never looked better in 15 years. I've tried other products, nothing matches Scott's performance on my lawn. I wish I used it from the first year. Lawn is now green, lush looking and no dollar weeds.
