Didn’t kill any weeds and left yellow spots

Very disappointed!!! I have been using Scott’s products for the past 4years with great results. I bought a 15000sq ft bag of weed and feed when I noticed some weeds this year. I applied accordingly to instructions on the bag, it did NOTHING to weeds and left yellow spots on my grass. I don’t know what happened to Scott’s weed and feed formula. Waste of money. Will never buy this product again and do not recommend!

We are sorry that you are disappointed with your purchase of Scotts Turf Builder Weed and Feed. The weeds will temporarily appear healthier and greener after an application of weed control. You should notice the weeds begin to curl and yellow a few days after application due to this excessive growth. Weeds will die within a 2 to 4 week period, depending on temperature conditions. We want you to be aware that we do back our product with our product guarantee. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you would like to speak further about this.

Weed and Feed a must

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Waited till the lawn was mowed a time or two prior to applying, and to allow the temperature to come up a bit. A recent rain gave me the opportunity I was looking for to have a damp yard to lay down the turf builder weed and feed. Good coverage and after only a few days the weeds are starting to wilt.

Great experience!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fantastic product! Really helped out r grass fill in where the dog had dug it up. Good at keeping the weeds down as well. You can use over the whole yard or in a specific area depending on the needs of your yard!

Undoubtedly the best protection against Dandelions

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Dandelions here in our neighborhood are a menacing nuisance that will take over a lawn if left untreated. Even when they are mowed down, lawns still look awful. With the correct timing and application of this product it will keep a lawn rid of them, (OK, you might get the rogue Dandelion) but the application will result in a healthier lawn. For me, it has gotten to the point where I will not tolerate even the "rogue" Dandelion. Weed and Feed keeps the lawn protected, but when I do get that one "rogue" Dandelion, spray Weed-B-Gone is my answer. I get all giddy and happy when I check a sprayed Dandelion the next day and I can see it is dying. Thank you Scotts for this wonderful product.

Disappointing results

I bought this and applied this per the instructions and am disappointed overall. While the feed portion appears to be working, the weed control is fairly weak as the dandelions are sprouting already. I have used Scotts products religiously through the years but it might be time to try something different.

Steve, we're sorry to hear Scotts turf Builder Weed & Feed didn't control the weeds as expected. For best results, day and nighttime temperatures should be consistently between 60-85 degrees. Reach out to us here for assistance with our product guarantee: https://tinyurl.com/y8nvfsca

Burned my grass.

My lawn was great before I made the worst mistake to buy this to try and get rid of clover that was starting to grow and spread. I had over seeded and put down organic fertilizers early spring. I applied Scott’s, followed all directions, and ended up with burnt, and dead grass patches. Just see te before and after pictures. I have been watering early morning, hoping to bring the grass back to life. I have learned my lesson, stick to the organic fertilizer, avoid Scott’s.

We are sorry that you have experienced problems with your lawn following an application of Scotts Turf Builder Weed & Feed. Damage can occur if products are accidentally over applied or applied to drought and heat stressed turf. This type of damage can sometimes be minimized by watering 1/2 inch every 3 days if rain is not expected. We suggest that you follow this program for the next 4 weeks if you do not receive sufficient rainfall. We also recommend that you do not apply any other product to the area for the next 4 weeks while your lawn tries to recover from this situation. For further assistance please contact us at 1-888-270-3714.

Turf Builder always the best.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Turf Builder is consistantly the highest quality lawn product. At times I have bought cheaper products, but always come back to Scotts. They know their products. Other brands may cost less, but they contain cheap filler, and when you see poor results and have to redo your lawn application again, no money has been saved!

Burned lawn.

Three days ago I had a beautiful green and lush lawn that I work on very hard to keep looking that way. On Wednesday, I put Scotts Turf Builder weed and feed. I followed the directions perfectly. I actually read them twice to be sure I was following directions. Today, Friday April 19, 2019, I have a lawn that is turning brown and dying. I am beyond upset and frustrated!!! Never again will I use Scotts products. Can someone please give advice to rectify the situation?

We are truly very sorry for the issues you encountered with Scotts Turf Builder Weed & Feed. This product is only meant to be used on certain lawn types. We recommend a watering program of 1/2 an inch of water every 3 days for 3 weeks. Your lawn should recover over time. This is not what we expect from this product, and 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. You may visit our contact page by clicking on the following link: http://tinyurl.com/mds8zo5

9 out of 10 Clovers recommend this product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tried this on my front and back yard which are on a 1/4 acre lot. The backyard has 3/4 of the lawn covered in thick short weeds and the front had clovers everywhere. I applied this product per the directions using a Scotts brand broadcast spreader. After a month, not a single weed in the front or back has shown any signs of deteriorated health, let alone death and the clovers only seemed to get stronger spreading further. Only changing temperatures finally made them go away for the time being.

We're troubled to hear of your results after using our Turf Builder Weed and Feed. This is certainly not the result we want you to have with our product, and have alerted our Quality Assurance Team of your review. What were the temperatures outside when you applied the product. This product will only be effective if applied to the weeds when they are actively growing, which usually means when temperatures are between 65-85 degrees. We want you to be confident in our products, which is why we offer a product guarantee to our consumers.
