Great product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was the first year I used Scott's turf builder. My yard has barely any shade where as crab grass and dandelions are prone to grow. I actually started the application early and put a second application down mid summer. The product worked great. My yard was crab grass/dandelion free!

Worked great

So I didn’t read the instructions and put down twice as much as recommended. It definitely caused some browning in my yard, but some of the sections of the yard on the house I just moved into were nothing but weeds. I was a little discouraged but didn’t reflect it upon Scott’s because I knew I’d put down 2-3 times too much without fully reading instructions and we didn’t get a ton of water. However, it’s been a month, and over the last 10 days we got a good bit of rain. I would say 85-90% of the weeds are gone, almost all of the browned spots are filled in, and my grass looks much, much thicker and greener than when I applied it. I was just talking to my wife about how I thought I screwed up our lawn and today it looks so good it doesn’t look like it could possible be the same lawn we moved into. I wouldn’t use much more it recommends. I’m likely very lucky but I wish I’d taken before and after photos for people considering this product in the future. I’ve talked to a lot of my neighbors whose lawns actually look good and all three recommended this product before I purchased.

Follow directions exactly;result only dead grass

My grass has never looked better, we aerated over seeded and used Scotts Lawn Food in the Spring(great product) Then as the temperatures rose weds appeared. Used the Scotts Weed and Feed Turf Builder(follow directions; wet lawn before applying) Used a light application with lawn spreadr to be cautious. Result is BROWN dead grass and thriving weeds. DO NOT BUY This; it will destroy your lawn. Plan to stick with only the Scotts Lawn Food.

Meh…

I had high expectations for this, honestly. Back in late April my lawn here in MA was popping up dandelions so I was thinking I should apply this. I try to read and follow directions as best I can, as opposed to some people who don’t and then they wonder why their product didn’t work. I mowed and bagged a day before the rain around the start of May, thinking it will have a better chance at hitting the weeds if the grass is shorter and no clippings interfering. The temperature range may not have been optimal as per the directions because of the yoyo-like temperatures being cool in the 40s in morning but 70s by late day. But I applied after the rain and let it sit, doing nothing to my lawn until after it rained maybe 5 days later to not disturb it. I was pleasantly surprised that there was little to no trace of any dandelions popping up after the first day and after the second day haven’t seen one since - that’s good. But the clover and most of the other weeds in my lawn didn’t appear to be affected - that’s bad. I gave it the benefit of the doubt and figured maybe the cooler temps played a factor and waited the 30 days to repeat the strategy to hopefully nuke all the other weeds and clover that were unaffected but this time in the appropriate temps. Sadly, it doesn’t really appear that it was working as I had hoped. It’s been about a couple weeks since applying the second serving and it says to only apply up to twice a year, and I don’t really see any signs of them dying off, so… I guess I’m stuck with all the unwanted clover and other weeds in my yard? Unfortunately I disposed of my receipt along with about 20 other receipts cluttering up my workspace so I don’t know if I can take advantage of the money-back guarantee or not. From my experience, if you only care about a green lawn visually from a distance, it works great for destroying dandelions. But if you’re walking around your lawn and don’t want those nasty weeds in it, this didn’t make the grade. For this product, I say “Meh…”

Dandelions Only

I have used enough to treat at least 50,000 sq ft of lawn ( yet I only have about 10,000 sf of grass) and the only thing I dont have is dandelions ( after digging some manually). I have lots of wild violets, chickweed, clover, etc. I am not happy with the results. seems it only is fertilizer not much weed killer

Greener grass

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After a short time, approx 7 days, I have noticed some of the weeds dying. I have not noticed any building of the turf as it is such a short time I but I have noticed the color of the grass is greener.... I would use weed and feed product 2X per year, so far I am happy with the Scotts product.

this product is legit.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] i have an acre of land I treated with this product and it did really well. I had a few sporadic dandelions pop up. But I might have just spread it thin in those spots. But overall I was impressed and happy with the results.

Almost no weeds!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lawn is lush and no dandelions / very few weeds. The grass grows sooo fast in the spring when fertilized that we do have to mow very often though! I always have a few yellow/bare spots from my dogs peeing but other than those small areas my yard is looking thick and green.

Meh, still have clover, dandelions, and sand spurs

Maybe I have less of them than before, but I've had much better results at my other house. Maybe something different about the day, no idea, but still pretty much have most of the weeks I had before. Except they're fertilized now because weed & feed. lol.

Use this every year

I apply Weed and Feed twice a year following the package instructions precisely. Apparently you need to apply it to wet grass, ie the foliage, for it to work properly. And it needs to stay there for awhile to work. (So apply before a bit of a dry spell.) If I get this on in time the lawn looks great and is low maintenance. If I mess up, I pay for it for the rest of that six month period. BONUS: apply just before your lawn is aerated. Even better.
