Have used the Scotts Turf Builder for years!!!!!!!!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love all Scotts products and I have used the Turf Builder for years and it really does a very good job especially considering that I live in Creede, Colorado at 8,852 feet elevation!!!! Not just everything works perfectly at this altitude but Scotts products do very well !!!!!

It works!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The functionality of this product may be dependent on when it's put down. In the upper New York State area the only time I've ever spread this fertilizer is when the forsythias begin to bloom, not before and not after the blossoms begin to die.

Even the LAWN GUY is amazed!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hands down, the BEST lawn fertilizer/crabgrass preventer! Even the lawn guy comments on it, and actually COMPLAINS because it enriches the lawn so much, the weekly lawn-cutting is more labor-intensive for him! Like "miracle lawn"! I'm dead serious, but thankfully, he hasn't raised my rates!

This product works great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used Scott's products since 1974. I've tried other products but none compares to the Scott's brand. The crabgrass preventer is an excellent product which keeps crabgrass from germination. I would recommend this product to anyone who has a problem with crabgrass.

This product simply did not work

I spread Halts on my lawn as soon as the ground was thawed and right when I normally would spread the product I normally use. and by the time July came around My lawn was over run with crabgrass I will be going back to the other product from here on in. The only reason I tried Halts is everyone sells it and the other product has limited availability.

We are sorry that the Scotts Turf Builder with Halts Crabgrass Preventer did not prevent crabgrass as expected. Please note, this only prevents those weeds listed on the label. Turf Builder with Halts Crabgrass Preventer will last for no more than four months. To get the best results from Turf Builder with Halts Crabgrass Preventer, it should be applied before weed seeds germinate. It will not kill existing weeds. Do not aerate or dethatch the lawn after using crabgrass preventers as this will break the product barrier in the soil, and the product will fail. Also, some weeds have look-alikes that are not controlled by the product. We want you to be confident in our products. For this reason, we offer a product guarantee to our consumers.

Easy to use; delivers on product promise; a great product

I have used Turf Builder plus Halts for over 35 years. My lawn has remained virtually 99.9% crabgrass free every year after each spring application for all summer and fall. Easy to deliver in my drop spreader. Faithful to its claim to prevent crabgrass. I can't say enough good things about it's consistency in effectively eliminating crabgrass from my lawn. I wish my neighbor would take it to heart and make the effort also. It is a quality product, one to be purchased by everyone.

works well when applied correctly

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Here in the Northeast I have found that product works best when put down at the right time. It is important not to put down to early or crabgrass will appear in August. If put down in late April in Phila. area product will prevent crabgrass all summer.

Good but WATCH OUT

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Couldn't figure out why I was getting crab grass after putting this down. FINALLY, Ants were bringing up soil and deleting the crab grass cover. You have to put an insect killer down at the same time to keep the integrity of the crab grass killer intact.

Crabgrass Preventer

I have used this product for the past several years. I have experienced an increase in crabgrass each year. I apply the product in early spring, around mid March or early April. I have to say that my lawn is now covered with crabgrass with areas very thick with the weed. The results do not justify my support for the product. I have attempted to upload a couple of picture but the 5mb limitation is preventing me from doing so.

greenest lawn on the block!

I treated my lawn in mid march and I now have the greenest lawn on the block. The grass came up so thick and healthy, my highest setting on the mower was too short to cut it. I couldn't be more pleased with the results and I have alredy gotten several compliments on my lawn.
