Bonus S

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I get this product every year and put on at the beginning and end of the season. My St. Augustine looks awesome, like a thick carpet of grass. I live in Dallas, TX and thats the best grass for here during the summer. I recommend this product. It costs more than Weed and feed but worth every penny.

Did not kill weeds. Grass looks good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Put down about 15 March 2017. Hard to handle a 10000 Ft bag and get all product into spreader without spilling. Watered after application but maybe not enough. On 30 March grass looks good but I have a lot of broad leaf and flowering weeds that the product did not kill. I will make second app about 15 june and will report again after that. Joe Ward

Great product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used Bonus S Weed & Feed for several years now and my lawn stays in great shape. Does a good job of fighting off the weeds while helping the grass grow to its full potential. You really cant go wrong with this product

So-So For me

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Having problems with lots of clover that other weed killers didn't kick to the curb, I was hoping that this would maybe be the one. However, it didn't do the job like I thought. It did kill off some but it just wasn't what I had hoped and so I won't give it a 5 star rating.

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

reply from Customer Care

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. Limitations apply. At your earliest convenience, please reach out to us at 888-270-3714 if we can further assist.

Good Results

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Applied Bonus S on two month old St Augestine sod.The sod picked up more color and I am now seeing better results with Dollarweed problem that I think came with the new sod.The product was easy to use and the pinkish color was easy to spot on my sidewalk and drive so I could sweep it up.

Expensive for not working correctly

First off, I feel guilty writing my complaint when all of the other reviewers lost their whole lawns. My condolences. My lawn is St Augustine and took the fertilizer well. It's dark green and thriving with the wet spring we've had. The weeds however also seem to be well fed and thriving. No weeds have been killed. The Dallisgrass is spreading even more than normal. The clover is dying on its own now that the summer heat is here. There was no weeding and for this price, I'd expect some... I'll stick to the generic ammonium nitrate I've used in the past. It fertilizes weeds too, but at only 1/2 the cost.

We're sorry to hear that you didn't get the results that you expected. The product would not control dallisgrass, but should control broadleaf weeds listed on the label.

Quality program

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using the Scotts Program on all my homes for years. If followed properly, the results are great. Make sure to water and cut according to recommendations. The Turf Builder is essential to start the year off right.

Terrible product excessive clumping

Absolutely worst bag of Scotts Turf Builder I have ever received product was so clumped up I had to use a two-by-four to smash it to spread it. Clumps jammed the feed door open and spread excessive product. then I had to walk my front lawn and pick up all the clumps. Excessive moisture in the bag when it was packaged because the bag was sealed tight

Great Products and Reputation

I have been using Scott products since 1972 on Zoysia and St Augustine grasses . I have always used Scootts Spreaders - drop and rotary. I have been impressed that Scotts continue to increase its brand across many lines that I also used with gardening and weeds control.
