Can't seem to get this product to work all of the way...

I've been a Scotts lawn product user for over 12 years now and I have had a really hard time making this Halts work on my new yard. I moved in to my house 3 years ago and started using Scotts products right away - as in, the first weekend after I moved in! There is one portion of my yard that I can't seem to get this crab grass out of. This Halts product certainly greens things up quickly in the spring, but come late summer, the crab grass continues to come back. I'm pretty diligent with my feeding schedule (I use Google calendar to track my feedings) and only really adjust depending on weather so I generally follow the Scotts feeding schedule. I'll try again next year, but I'm not confident that its going to work. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. As for the rest of the yard, we're doing great! Now, if Scotts would come up with some residential product that'll take care of what I think is Nimblewill. It is growing more and more and taking over more and more of my good looking grass!

Best I've ever used!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had professional lawn care people take care of my lawn over the years. Two years ago when I retired I decided to take care of my own fertilizing and lawn care. Well, my lawn looks the best that it ever has thanks to Scotts products!

Consistent results/never any crab grass

I have used Scotts with crab grass inhibitor for years now and it gives me a thick green lawn with no crab grass. Before I used Scotts I had crab grass, but since using Scotts for over 10 years I have never had grab grass, and I have a thick and beautiful lawn. I apply it in the spring and then again in the fall.

Quality product for quality results

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Never have I had problems with this burning my lawn, not having even feeding or spotty results. I have had these problems with other products. In my opinion, scotts costs a bit more, but provides consistent beautiful results that I am looking for with fertilizing. I use it every year!

Top of its class!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have a five acre yard so it becomes quite expensive to use your product. Over the last twenty years we've tried saving money by using other brands including bulk from a local farm service. We've found that nothing comes close to Scotts so it's worth the extra costs to us!

Used for years

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Dad has been using all Scotts products for the past 35 years. He was one of the only people who used Scotts products and did not replace his lawns. I currently use this and many other products and it does what is says.

No sign of crabgrass

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After years of fighting crabgrass, including using chemical sprays (which left brown spots), and removing the plant itself (leaving holes that led to bare spots), I tried the Turfbuilder Halts - and will continue to use it for as long as they make it. After 2 years, all crabgrass was gone, and for the following two years I have seen no evidence of crabgrass. I love it.

My accidental experiment

I accidentally posted this under the wrong product! Scotts folks, you can delete the one under the other Halts Grassy Weeds product. I used this product and it didn't seem to work. However, I had an interesting incident with it. While using my spreader on a hill, it tipped briefly and spilled a decent chunk of material on the lawn. I scraped up what I could, but over time, what was left washed down the hill. Where the bulk of the product fell, the grass died. I wasn't surprised at that. But the picture shows what happened with the product that washed down the hill. The grass is green and weed free. Beautiful. The first pic is from about 8 weeks ago, second pic is today. What I conclude is, though applied according to directions, the application was not heavy enough. That's Scott's fault. My concern is that the directions "stretch" the application area beyond what is realistic to make the price seem more favorable? I'll use again next year, but at heavier rates.
