Great For Enhanced Growth of St. Augustine Grass And Weeds In Texas

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I applied this product a bout a week ago, and I was able to see a quick greening and growth of grass and weeds too. Although my lawn has crab grass, clovers and dollar weeds right now, after approx. 3 days, I saw some browning on the leaves of the clovers. Not sure yet, but I believe a second treatment of this product will need to be applied within the expressed amount of time to retreat to further kill the clovers and dollar weeds. No such luck on the crabgrass, as the eradication of those are a different subject regarding a different Scott's product. The product did what it stated it would do and one can't expect much better than that. I would recommend this product for a greener St. Augustine lawn, but also suggest repeating treatment for enhanced root building and certain control of unwanted weeds. I did not rate it an overall 5 due to it not doing anything for the crabgrass weeds. Also, I was given a sample product to try by Scott's as a member of their Roots program, but this did not interfere with my honest assessment of this product.

Works great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this about a month ago. Works great. I did have to retreat some dollar weed as I was conservative with it the first time as it was near some hibiscus plants. Did a good job otherwise & worked well with my zoysia grass.

Great for lawn, just ok on weeds

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm using the Scott's app for all lawn treatments this year. It's a great tool for homeowners. I've followed the plan they laid out for my lawn and it works great. The key to my success is using all Scott's products for all the lawn treatments. The lawn looks great!

Another example of a very good Scotts product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been a fan of Scotts products for many many years. They rarely disappoint. Turf Builder with weed control is an excellent product serving two purposes, feeding and weeding. Say goodbye to dollar weed in my lawn! Recommended!

Not worth the money.

I paid good money for a product that killed one type of weed. I bought this fertilizer especially for Dollar Weed, basically the dollar weed absolutely loved the stuff along with all the other weeds in my yard. I followed the directions as listed, and basically wasted money. I bought a bottle of Weed be gone, and killed the dollar weed right off.

Scott’s Bonus S- 2025

I purchase a bag of Bonus S (10, 000 sq ft ) for my my St Augustine lawn in Florida that had dollar weed, applied Jan8 and watered immediately after application. As of Feb 2 it did nothing to kill the dollar weed much less other weeds that start growing this time of year. Something seriously wrong with this product

We're sorry to read about your disappointment with Scotts Bonus S and appreciate your feedback. For the best results, we recommend that Scotts Turf Builder Bonus S Southern Weed & Feed2 is applied to a dry lawn when the temperatures are consistently above 60°F. Be sure to water the product in after application. This is especially important when daytime temperatures are above 85°F. We recommend that weeds not be mowed for two days both before and after the product application. If the weeds you are battling have been growing in your lawn for several months, they may be mature - you can tell this if the weed has already flowered for the season. Mature weeds will need multiple applications to be controlled by any herbicide. The sooner in the growing season that you can treat the weeds in your lawn, the better your results will be. If follow-up applications are needed, you can apply a second application of Scotts Turf Builder Bonus S Southern Weed & Feed2 8 weeks after your initial application. Also, please keep in mind Scotts Turf Builder Bonus S Southern Weed & Feed2 only controls those weeds it is registered to control. If the weed you are trying to control is not listed on the label, please let us know what the weed is and we will see if we have a product you can use to control that weed. If you are unsure of the identity of the weed, we recommend taking a sample of it to a reputable garden center for identification. We want you to be confident in our products. For this reason, we offer a product guarantee. If for any reason you, the consumer, are not satisfied with the results after using this product, you are entitled to get your money back.

Spring Clean Up

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Weeds gone. Grass as green as I could wish for. My lawn is greener and more dense than my neighbors who have their's professionally cared for. Bonus S worked faster than similar products I used in the past

Worked great in La home; not great in MS home

Ive used the Bonus S weed and feed for many years on our 4 acre grass in our Shreveport home and it worked like a champ. I bought 6 bags for our ocean front 1 acre lawn in Ocean Springs and applied it several weeks ago. It absolutely failed spectacularly on our beach house lawn. The weeds have proliferated during this time and Ive wasted 3 bags on our front lawn, with 3 bags still in reserve for our back yard. For some reason, what worked on our Shreveport lawn just destroyed our Ocean Springs lawn.
