Application

There is no information on the bag informing the user what type of grasses this product can be applied on. I called the company and was told it could be used on St. Augustine. This web site says it can't. Company should put this info on the bag.

We are sorry for any confusion regarding Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action. The product lists the safe grass types on the back label of the bag. Also, this product is not intended for St. Augustine grass. If you wish to continue discussing this encounter with us, contact us at the following link: http://tinyurl.com/mds8zo5

Did nothing

I applied two bags 50lb bags to my lawn last week when the grass was wet, after the third mow, when it's been 60-70 degrees, and 30 hours before rain and it's done absolutely nothing...

Megan, we are sorry to hear about your experience with Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action. This product will only kill existing broadleaf weeds, it is not designed to prevent the growth of new broadleaf weeds. Also, this product will not kill grassy weeds but is only designed to prevent grassy weeds, such as crabgrass. Lastly, weeds may appear healthier for a few days after application but you should see weed death between 2-4 weeks. Despite this fact, we want you to be confident in our products and we stand by the promises made in our advertisements. For this reason, we offer a product guarantee to our consumers. At your earliest convenience, please call 888-270-3714, and reference this product review for assistance.

Poor Directions

I've always used Scott's products, but this new product directions says nothing about applying to a wet or dry lawn. I had to look online to find “apply to a dry lawn”

Useless and hatmful

Useless on weed. Plenty still on the lawn after 2 weeks. Harmful very fine powder flies off the spreader into your face. Beware, very irritating when you breath it.

Look at my lawn!

I live in the northeast and bought Turf Builder Triple action in the spring and applied it. I followed all of the directions. Here is a photo of my lawn. It looks terrible. I will never use this product again.

Didn't work

I bought this last month. Applied two weeks ago. I now have triple the amount of dandelions that I had when applied. So I guess it works opposite of its intentions

We're sorry to hear Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action didn't control the weeds as expected. It can take up to 4 weeks for this product to completely control listed weeds. For best results, day and nighttime temperatures should be consistently between 60-90 degrees. Reach out to us here for assistance with our product guarantee: https://tinyurl.com/y8nvfsca

Will purchase again.

Applied the product after about 3 days the dandelion stem where wilting. After mowing I haven't noticed any return of dandelion stems or weed. Very happy.

Conflicting Information

I looked for an application for my Zenith Zoysia, time of year and weather conditions. It is difficult because it is not clear with conflicting or missing information when review various sites.

Thank you for your question regarding Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action. It can be applied during two different time frames. You can apply in April, May, or June when weeds are actively growing in the lawn. In general, when weeds are most actively growing in late spring and early fall when daytime highs are between 60-80 degrees. You can also apply in early Fall in place of Scotts Winterguard Weed and Feed. If you have any further questions or would like further assistance, please contact us at 877-220-3089 and one of our representatives would be glad to assist you.

Not as good as original

I bought this thinking it was an improvement, I pretty sure the clover enjoys the fertilizer. It worked for all the other random but the clover is stronger.

Not sure if it's working or not

I applied this a month ago. The grass looks great. However, I do see a few dandelions which is not so bad... just a few that can be killed. My peeve is that it did not work on clover at all. So I guess it was a partial success?
