This product was disappointing.

I used this product per instruction. The fertilizer did a nice job of greening and perking up the grass. It apparently also fertilized the clover, dandelions, and crabgrass as especially the clover is taking over.

Tied and true. Very effective in preventing crabgrass, despite the heat and encroachment from other lawns.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to apply and the results are quickly apparent. With continued use, the quality and texture of the lawn improves. Bare foot approved as my neighbors like to say. Highly recommended.

Waist of Time and Money

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After years of buying the product, applying as directed and constantly dealing with Crabgrass growing back year after year, it's time to find a product that works as advertised.

We would like to apologize that our Turf Builder with Halts Crabgrass Preventer has not lived up to your expectations. This product will prevent crabgrass from growing, although it does need to be applied before those seeds have a chance to germinate. We recommend applying the product before the third mowing of your grass in the spring, and before temperatures reach 80 degrees. The product does provide 3-4 month control of crabgrass, but it will not prevent it indefinitely. A second application can be made 6-8 weeks after your initial application to extend the control. 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 to see what we can do for you.

It works!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this product instead of having to hire a lawn care company to fertilize my lawn. It keeps my lawn healthy and green.

Works OK for me

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I still get some crabgrass in certain spots in the yard but I admit I do not use as much as I probably could since I mulch my grass and do not need the full dose of fertilizer from this product.

Product work like a dream...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just moved to Ohio from California I never saw weeds like these, so I researched and I knew that Scott's had a product that would work. Waiting for spring to apply some seed, thanks Scotts

Ever since I used this product my grass has never looked any better

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is one way to up your lawn's look. I love it and it is very easy to use. I've used other products and Scott's is by far the best. I love it's results.

Not so effective anymore

I've used this product for a long time. Apply per the instructions keeping a close eye on soil temperature. It has never prevented all the crabgrass but in the last couple years it has not prevented very much crabgrass.

We are sorry that the Scotts Turf Builder with Halts Crabgrass Preventer did not prevent crabgrass as expected. Turf Builder with Halts Crabgrass Preventer will last for no more than four months. You can extend the crabgrass prevention by reapplying Scotts Turf Builder with Halts Crabgrass Preventer after 8 weeks. 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. Aeration or dethatching the lawn after using crabgrass preventers as this will break the product barrier in the soil, and the product will fail. 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 to see what can be done.
