Will buy again.

The crabgrass spread through out my yard last year so I was determined to get it under control before it totally took over my yard this year. Early this spring, in March, I spread Scotts Turf Builder with Halts Crabgrass Preventer as directed by the instructions. Now, in August I have almost no crabgrass at all in the yard. There is one patch of crabgrass near my fence but I think I probably missed 'feeding' it. :) I WILL be doing this again next spring and will make sure I get closer to the fence.

Great product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have been using Scott's Turfbuilder that halts crabgrass for over 20 years and have always had great success. Before that our lawn was always overun with crabgrass but since using this product, our lawn has no crabgrass and the grass is healthy and amazing to look out. I thoroughly recommend this product. It has worked for our lawn and I'm sure it will work for yours.

PREVENTS CRABGRASS

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Halts is easy to apply with a spreader. It prevents the crabgrass from germinating for 3 months; you must get it applied before you see the crabgrass because it stops germination, does not kill grass already sprouted. Since I have to apply it mid March or so, it only lasts until the end of June, so I have to apply it again before the end of June or the crabgrass does appear mid July through Sept.

My lawn takes on a whole new green with this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Although, we use the weed & feed and other Scotts lawn care. A new application of the Scotts Turf Builder gives our lawn the lush, darker green look that makes the lawn look healthy and inviting like no other product we ever used. We have used this product on our lawn for many years, highly recommend it for a beautiful lawn and never hesitate to tell others what we use when they ask. Thank you Scotts for making it a lot easier to have a lawn we are proud of.

The best on the market.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this product for many years in early spring. It does a great job. My lawn greens up again quickly and deals with the crab grass. I have tried other products, but always go back to Scotts. The best on the market!

This product is effective!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The hot dry spell we had experienced in WNY promoted the growth of excessive crabgrass. So, I went to the local garden center and purchased a liquid crabgrass killer which left patches of brown and did not thicken the grass. The FOLLOWING year I applied as per company directions the Scotts Crabgrass control with Turf builder and was amazed to find the crabgrass GONE and the grass thickened up! I have over 30,000 square feet of lawn that I fertilize and am SOLD on the performance of Scotts Crabgrass with Lawn food fertilizer. A Western New York resident

Works as advertised

I have used the product according to the Mfg. recommendations and have found it to perform as promised. Of course it's still early for crabgrass, and we will see later this summer if I am right. None the less, Turfbuilder with Halts, and Scotts Crabgrass Preventer are products I count on in my lawncare program. I have a small walmart store here that does NOT carry the full line of Scotts products, like crabgrass preventer, and I wish they did.

Killed new grass, didn't prevent weeds.

Rented a power seeder and overseeded my lawn the first week of April. Also seeded some bare areas in my lawn. After several weeks and a ravenously growing lawn, I applied this just after Memorial Day. It killed all the newly seeded grass I had planted - all the bare spots turned dead brown, and I have brown grass throughout my lawn. Not only did it kill the grass I seeded, but all the crabgrass and chickweed that wasn't present in May has since come up.

Use it Early!

I used this product in mid March in Southern NJ this year, before the crabgrass germinated and have almost none. When I used it after I saw crabgrass [last year and the year before], I still had plenty. Therefore, timing is essential. It must be used BEFORE crabgrass germinates.

This product works effectively

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used Scotts Turf Builder Crabgrass Preventer for several years and have found it to be a very good product. I have not experienced any issues with crabgrass since I started usi9ng the crabgrass preventer.
