Only Lawn Fertilizer I Use!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This stuff is the best. I use it every 2-3 months; it keeps the grass green, healthy and weed free. I’ve tried many others and non seem to work as good as this for North Flordia St Augustine grass.

Great product for St Augustine lawn

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recommend using a drop spreader if you have a lot of flowers and shrubbery against your lawn. I found that I did not get even coverage because I was afraid to get close to my landscaping plants. Super product!

Keeping up with the Jones's

My neighbor used this product two weeks ago in our new development. All of the homes have had sod installed about a year ago and our yards look exceptionally horrible. After 2 weeks, his yard looks outstanding. It literally looks luscious and I don't think I've ever used that word when describing grass! Needless to say, I borrowed the spreader, bought the product and am doing mine today! I will update in two weeks.

Didn't work

When I first moved into this house in central Florida (2011) I used Bonus S and it worked great. Last year (2016) in September I applied to my lawn to kill dollarweed which had started to appear. It didn't kill anything. I now have twice as much dollarweed. I noticed in your guarantee statement for Bonus S it says "Simply send us evidence of purchase and we will mail you a refund check promptly. For more details, click here." The "click here" doesn't work. What does this tell you? Your instructions say to water in immediately after application which to me means my normal watering, but your replies to some reviews say to lightly water in. Shouldn't your instructions say this? This product use to work great. I wish I knew what you changed.

Clumping prevents spreader from working properly

I have used this product at least 20 times and each year I think I will have better luck spreading the material, but No. The humidity in Florida makes the fertilizer pellets fuse together into clumps and it plugs the spreader. You have to stop and hand clear the feed ports and start again. Total frustration. A 30 minute job takes an hour of stopping and starting.

disappointed expectations

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] received it and used it according to directions and it did a marginal job as far as killing the weeds in the lawn. green up was fair but seemed to disapate more quickly in comparision to other weed and feed products. overall i was not satisfied with the product and will not recommend it.

Amazing come back

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I applied Turf Builder to my lawn four weeks ago, including a section that desperately needed re-sodding. Since the lawn was in bad shape, it took about three weeks to notice any major results. This week the lawn is beginning to turn super green. The area that needed re-sodding has begun to fill in and most of the weeds are being overpowered by new growth. I am very satisfied with Turf Builder product!

This product only seens to half work

After one month, first spring application, the St Augustine is greener and growing nicely, but so are the weed, oxalis in particular, growing greener and bigger. No sigh of wilting or distress to the oxalis or other weeds. They just keeps growing. Prior to moving to Wilmington, Lived in Greensboro, NC and used Scotts Turf Builder on fescue. Good Product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been a user of Scotts products for many years, in New York, N. Carolina, and now Florida. . This Bonus S Southern is among the best yet. Zoysia lawns here in Florida get quite stressed with the spring and summer heat.

Great Results!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I applied the Turf Builder Bonus S, at the beginning of Spring, and had a lot of dollarweed and clover growing and edging out the new grass. It is now a few weeks later, and the grass is very lush and green, and I have almost no weeds remaining. Great product!
