Disappointed with your claim

I have purchased Scotts Weed and Feed for the past several years only because it's the most available fertilizer on the market. I have not been happy with this fertilizer. The claim on this bag that it clears out dandelions and clover is just not true. I am constantly out there with my garden tool pulling out dandelions and trying to pull new patches of clover.

Great results beautiful lawn

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use Turf Builder Weed and Feed for my first application then I use Turf Builder for follow up feedings. My lawn was green and weed free which was great because the neighbors on either side had yellow lawns the weeds were so thick. We recently moved and I can't wait to get started on making our new lawn as good as my last one. It will take a couple of years but with regular feedings some patching and seeding I know it will be green and thick in no time. Feed It.

One Weed Loves The Product

I have used the Scotts Weed and Feed product as well the spray on. The dandelions are gone. The grass is green. However ther is one weed that appears to love the treatments. Only a few seen a few years ago. Now they seem to grow ecponentionaly. I see the same weed on a review from Mrs. A four days ago. Enclosed is my photo of the weed. I just mowed and saw how bad the weed problem is. Purchased more Scotts Weed and feed and not sure I should apply. Any thoughts on the weed and a treatment?

We are sorry you were disappointed with the SCOTTS TURF BLDR WD&FD 5M. The product must stick to the weed leaves to be effective. It should be left undisturbed and not watered for 24 hours after application. Temperatures must be consistently between 60 and 90 degrees when applied. If temperatures are high weeds slow their growth and can not absorb the product. If weeds are not getting regular watering they can not absorb the product. Weeds may temporarily appear healthier and greener after an application of a weed control. The active ingredients trigger uncontrolled plant growth that causes weeds listed on the label to die. You should notice the weeds begin to curl and yellow a few days after the application due to excessive growth. Controlled weeds should die within 2 to 4 weeks depending on temperatures. We recommend taking a sample of the weed to a local nursery for identification to be sure this is a controlled weed. Please reach out to our Consumer Services team at 888-270-3714 for further assistance.

Hardy grass seed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best grass seed. I used it on hard to grow spots and it came up thick and hardy. Scotts grass seed is the best product. I have tried off name brands but they cannot compare to the quality of scott products.

Great Product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I applied this as well as the rest of the Scott's lawn treatments recommended and my grass looked more beautiful than it has in years! I highly recommend this as well as the rest of the steps for your lawn. It is so simple and the results are spectacular.

Not happy with this product

I’ve been in the Scott’s program now for two years….not once has this product worked to keep the clover out of my yard…..I have spots and patches of clover all over my yard….I followed the instructions on the bag and even bought a new Scott’s spreader to put it down with…..not sure what Else I can do…tired of having to spot treat all of the areas where the clover wasn’t killed….

Burned my lawn

My lawn was in very good shape. Minus the dandelions and clover, the lawn was very healthy. I read the directions on this product very closely to make sure I applied it correctly. Within 36 hours of application the majority of the lawn was burned. Some spots are worse than others but some are definitely burned to the point that they won't recover.

We are sorry that you have experienced problems with your lawn following an application of Scotts Turf Builder Weed & Feed. This product has proven to be a good product and has been thoroughly tested on the grass varieties listed on the label when applied according to label directions. 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 for the next 4 weeks while your lawn tries to recover from this situation. Please be aware that issues such as lawn disease or insects feeding are often mistaken for product damage. You may want to take a sample of the damaged area to a reputable nursery to rule these out. We would like to further discuss this matter with you and have found these situations are handled more efficiently over the phone.

Curb Appeal

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s springtime and I needed to start my curb appeal program for my front lawn. I bought Scott’s Turf Builder Weed and Feed to get the best results. Was not disappointed with the results, not only is my lawn looking and growing at a great rate, but I don’t see any annoying weeds either.Thanks Scott’s you came thru once again!

Doesn’t really work on clover

We have an issue with clover in our yard, so I bought this Scott’s Weed & Feed product to apply. I waited for a good solid rain with multiple days after 60-80 degrees of pure sunshine after. I applied as directed, grass was damp, used the Scott’s elite spreader (great spreader btw) with a setting of 3.5 as directed, slightly overlapping passes, particles clung to the clover leaves (and dandelions) as you want/expect... then waited for the magic to happen. Well, what actually happened is about 1% of the clover and other random weeds were killed and the rest just flourished as if nothing was applied, actually some areas look worse/larger than prior to applying. Moral of this story, save your money. If you have ~2 acres to apply, it’s a waisted investment. Unfortunate because I have had great luck with the rest of Scott’s products (I am a 4 step user). I’ll be pursuing this *guarantee they boast about

We apologize for this experience with our Scotts Turf Builder Weed & Feed. The weeds may temporarily appear healthier and greener after using this product as the active ingredient causes the weeds to grow themselves to death. The weeds will die within a 2 to 4 week period, depending on temperature conditions. We are committed to making this right for you. Please contact us at https://tinyurl.com/y8nvfsca and refer to this review so we can further assist you.

the lawn turned green but....

I am surprised by my results. I usually see only positives from Scotts products. In this case the lawn turned nice and green so the feed portion works well but....I now have more dandelions than I ever have in the past. The weed portion is an epic fail! It is almost like the bag includes weed seeds! Very disappointed.

We are sorry to hear about your disappointment in the Scotts Turf Builer Weed & Feed. This product will kill listed weeds at the time of the application. It will not prevent new weeds from developing. This means that the timing of the application is important. Apply in the spring when weeds are starting to emerge and when temperatures are between 65 and 85 degrees. Again, we are sorry to hear about your disappointment. If you have any questions or would like to speak with us regarding our product guarantee, please contact us at the following link. http://tinyurl.com/7ag7a3n
