Does What It Says

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Followed directions and it has definitely helped control weeds.

it feeds the weeds

I bought this product and used as directed when weeds were growing. Grass has not greened up yet, but the weeds are growing like WEEDS.

Not what it used to be!

I have used this product for years with great results but the last two times I have used it it has not been the same. Weeds seem to be thriving!

We're sorry to read about your disappointment with Scotts Turf Builder Bonus S and appreciate your feedback. Temperatures must be consistently (several days in a row) between 60°F and 90°F for target weeds to be actively growing. It can take up to 3 weeks for the weeds to begin to yellow. This product does not prevent new weed development only kills weeds that were actively growing at the time of application. Product must be watered in to be effective. Water lightly (¼ to ½ inch of water) right after use, to activate the weed control and feeding then cut back on watering. Dollarweed/Pennywort is difficult to control, particularly if the lawn is being watered too much. Most turf grasses only need 1 inch of water a week. Typically watering 1/2 inch twice a week will be sufficient for turf grass, while dollar weed thrives when there is excess water. If dollarweed is growing in a St. Augustine lawn, reduce watering to once every two weeks. The St. Augustine grass will survive nicely without water but the dollarweed will be weakened. Once weakened, it is more susceptible to weed control products. After treating the dollarweed go back to watering only 2 times a week with ½ inch of water. 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 reach out to us at 888-270-3714 if we can further assist.

This is the one weed and feed that works all the time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent to deliver on lawn, provides protection all year. Only wish it was cheaper.

Very disappointed

I put this on my lawn almost 3 weeks ago, very disappointed. I still have a yard full of dollar weeds and dandelions.

Thank you for your feedback on the Scotts Turf Builder Bonus S Southern Weed and Feed. We are sorry to hear that it did not perform as expected and would like to offer you some tips for application along with our product guarantee. The air temperature is critical and should be consistently between 60-90 degrees for optimal weed killing. Secondly, the product should be applied to a dry lawn and then gently watered in immediately afterwards. Lastly, overwatering or large rain events can be responsible for dissipating the product which leads to unsatisfactory results. Dollarweed specifically can be difficult to get rid of entirely and we suggest minimizing the water your lawn receives to 1 inch every two weeks, to help weaken the weed. It is always our goal to produce the highest quality products that can be trusted to work by our customers, at your earliest convenience please call 888-270-3714 for assistance with our product guarantee.

This product "Does Not" kill Dollarweed as shown on the bag. Has anyone else had any good results with the Bonus S killing Dollarweed?

The product does 90% of the work

Tough Dollar weed needs a little heavier application than recommended, but it does a great job, knocking it back quickly!

Approx 30 days after application, lush weeds in front yard.

Product did green up grass, but kicked clover, dollar weed into lush over-drive. Could not identify a single weed Bonus S was effective against.

We are sorry that the Turf Builder Bonus S Southern Weed & Feed2 was ineffective in controlling the weeds in your lawn. Keep in mind that Turf Builder Bonus S does not prevent new weeds from germinating or growing. Excessive water can also drive the active ingredient from weed roots, thus allowing them to grow. 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 at 800-543-8873 to see what can be done.
