Simply the best!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using Scott's Turf Builder plus Halts for over 30 years. Once I tried another brand because I thought it would do the same job as Scott's for less money. Boy was I wrong! Right back to Scott's the next year and ever since. My lawn is perfect and I will never switch to another lawn maintenance product...ever!

Jealous neighbors

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a miracle product. The previous owners of my house let the lawn go for a few years and it was in rough shape when I bought it. Turf builder plus crabgrass halter has made my lawn beautiful. Neighbors are constantly commenting about it and I tell them that this one product is a miracle-worker!

Scotts is the BEST

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used ALL of Scott's lawn fertilizer products at one time or another and still do to this day, depending on what the issue is. I highly recommend it! I can really tell when I haven't used it ! The lawn is not as lush, weeds coming out here and there and it just doesn't look as healthy. I tried one time to use something a little cheaper, but I went right back to Scotts if that tells you anything.

This product is a must have.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I honestly have not found a Scotts product that I was disappointed with. I've had neighbors and strangers stop by while I'm outside working and ask me what's my secret. My secret is use Scotts products and water. It is truly that simple.

Wonderfully heathy lawn

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Last year I fired my lawn care company and started doing it myself. Not only did I save money, but using only Scotts products I had the greenest, best looking lawn on the block. Halts crabgrass preventer with lawn food was easy to use, knocked down the crabgrass and greened up my lawn nicely. Their app is pretty cool too.

Effective product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I hate crabgrass. Scott's halts product does the job every year I've been using it for several years. So if you have a problem with crabgrass put it down every early spring and you will definitely see results. I never go a season without using it. If you don't it will definitely crowd out the good grass that you want to keep

Did not work

I moved into a new home and applied crabgrass control two time last season and had in a my back lawn. I usually only use scotts weed and feed with 2X dandelion control. I saw the crabgrass control so I tried it out. I also had a break out of clover and dandelions. I apply scotts weed and feed to my lawn five times a season. I have alway had good results when using it. I think scotts may not work in my the new yard.

We are sorry that you did not get the results you expected from Scotts® Turf Builder® Halts Crabgrass Preventer with Lawn Food. To control crabgrass and other listed spring germinating weeds this product should be applied in early Spring before the 3rd or 4th mowing and before temperatures are regularly in the 80's. It is only listed to prevent weeds, but will not kill what is already there. Your feedback is important to us, and we will pass this on to our Quality Assurance Team. We would be interested in discussing this further so that we can learn more about this issue and extend our product guarantee. At your earliest convenience, please contact us to see what can be done.

This is the only product to beat crabgrass & to keep your lawn crabgrass free.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always used scott turf gard halt which kills crabgrass starts to germinate. Don't delay in applying as once the temperature reaches 60 degrees , crabgrass seeds starts to germinate. If scott halt is applied before 60 degree that is in march, it will kill crabgrass germination. But apply 2nd time in may to be completely free of crabgrass along with a lush green lawn. Your money won't be a waste as with other product in the market.

Doesn't work

According to Scotts, it is important to put this on at the right time. I've been using it now for the past 10 years and I have a fine crop of crabgrass every year. For those who aren't sure of the timing, this might help. Make sure to put it on 135 days before the first frost this coming autumn, between the 4th and 6th hours of the day, and between the 20th and 80th seconds of each of those hours and I'll bet it might work. For the rest of us, save your money because this DOES NOT WORK!

We are sorry to hear that Scotts Turf Builder with Halts did not prevent the weeds as you expected. You are correct that timing is important. The product must go down before crabgrass starts to germinate. This means that it should be applied before temperatures reach 80 degrees. As a rule of thumb, it's best to apply after the first mowing and before the third mowing of the season. Keep in mind that there are several grassy type weeds that can be confused with crabgrass. Since you've had the same problem year after year, make sure to have the weed properly identified. It's also important not to break the barrier once the product is applied. Digging or heavy raking may disturb the barrier enough so that it no longer prevents the weeds from developing. Lastly, the barrier will only last 4 months. We hope that you find this information helpful and we want you to be confident in our products. For this reason, we offer a product guarantee to our consumers.
