We&#39;re sorry to read about your disappointment with Scotts Turf Builder Weed &amp; Feed and appreciate your feedback.<br /><br />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 this excessive growth. Weeds will die within a 2 to 4 week period, depending on temperature conditions.<br /><br />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 reach out to us at 888-270-3714 if we can further assist.

Striped my lawn.

Bought two bags, followed instructions on the back to a tee and within 72 hours, my lawn looked as if I zebra striped it on purpose. Yellow and green lines in the exact pattern that I walked with my spreader. In addition to the yellow stripes, it did absolutely nothing to any of the weeds that it was spread on.

Tylo, we apologize for this experience with our Scotts® Turf Builder® Weed & Feed. We recommend watering the lawn with a half-inch of water every 2-3 days to help it recover. 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.

Scotts Turf Builder NOT RECOMMENDED

'Purchased above item, 14.29 pounds (5k sq ft), at Midland MI Walmart on May 8th. Application was done according to recommendations under ideal temperature ec conditions. After waiting one month there is no effect on spring weeds. This 100% failure suggests a serious lot-quality problem with Scotts. I have bar code and upc data for the bag. On May 30 I sent a letter to the CEO of Scott's and to date have not received any reply. This product is NOT RECOMMENDED. L.C. WAlker, Midland, MI

We apologize for the inconvenience you’ve experienced when using Scotts Turf Builder Weed and Feed. This particular product usually has a lot of success stories from users, but it is helpful when we get reviews like yours to help us produce quality seed. Here are a few tips to consider when growing in the future. For Cool Season grasses like Bluegrass, Ryegrass, and different types of Fescues soil temperatures must be at least 55 degrees (+12.7 Celsius) for grass seed to germinate and can take between 4 -21 days to see germination. Warm season grasses like Bermudagrass, Centipede and Zoysia, which germinates in early summer, requires soil temperatures between 75 - 90 degrees (24 - 32 Celsius) and can take between 5-28 days to see visible germination. Watering also plays a defining factor in germination. We recommend watering 1-2 times a day until germination is visible and then watering 1- 1 ½” per week as needed. Both excessive watering and not enough watering can slow down or even stop germination of the product. If you have any other questions or concerns please feel free to contact us at http://tinyurl.com/mds8zo5 and one of our representatives would be glad to assist you. We hope this issue has not caused you to lose faith in Scotts Turf Builder Weed and Feed, as we use reviews like yours to maintain and improve the quality product that you and other consumers have come to know and love.

Good stuff!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product greens up the yard and gets rid of the unwanted weeds within a few days of applying. Easy to apply and works great! It is a little more expensive than other products out there but the results are worth it.

Hard Clumps in bag

Just used this for the 1st time on 5/24/16. Bag looked fine but very hard clumps inside, hard time breaking it up. Clogged my spreader several times. I do not hav a review on the quality/fuctionality of the product and I'm sure it's very good BUT as far as clumping is concerned I give it a 2. Thanks Stan

Lack luster results

Have used this product 2 years in a row and received the same results. Clovers galore and dandelions abroad. I use this in my front yard only because I have dogs and I have weeds everywhere yet I don't use in the backyard and I have maybe 1 or 2 dandelions. Haven't seen any change in the overall health of the lawn in terms of color of fullness. At the premium price I would have expected better results.

Horrible Results !!!!

I purchased on line and used a Scott’s spreader set at the correct setting. Spread the white pellets and waited for it to kill the weeds. It killed everything but the weeds. The weeds are green and my grass is yellow ( dead). Thank God I ran out before I could do the front. I always use Scott’s products but never ever use this!! Check out my lawn Last picture is of the nice green front without Scott’s !! Uggh

Works pretty well

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used my Scotts broadcast/rotary spreader per recommend on the bag. Setting at 3 3/4. I filled and spread it in the morning since I live in California. I applied after I watered my grass. My grass was mowed about two days prior. There's different recommendations on the bag which is helpful. After your done spreading you shouldn't let people or animals to enter the treated area until after the dust settles. So we kept out dogs inside overnight just to be safe. Make sure to look at all restrictions before using this product. The weeds have started to twist and curl. It states that a month or more May be required for complete control. It also says it won't prevent weed seeds from producing new plants. So keep on eye on the weeds. I cut the tops of some that I saw that had flowers. It also says to feed your lawn regularly, annually. So far my lawn just needs to be monitored but so far it's doing the job.

Scott’s Weed and Feed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product work great for feeding the lawn and controlling weeds. Easy to apply and then watch the weeds go away and the grass grow green an lush. I always much for the first 4 to 5 mowings after application.

Product WORKS as described!

I applied at the end of April, beginning of May. After a week, weeds were dying and grass was taking back over. After a month, almost all weeds were dead and the whole lawn was back. Product works exactly as described. You can’t just spread it on and forget it. You have to follow the directions to get the best results. The results are simply what you would expect from the advertised results. This product delivers the results described. The only con, is it would not kill the type of weed in the picture I posted. I have 2 spots of weeds like this in my lawn that remain. I don’t know what kind of weed it is, but weed and feed couldn’t handle it. It destroyed the dandelions, now I have just grass instead of a pock marked lawn of dandelion. Great product!!!
