Didn't Kill My Dandelions

I was a bit disappointed as it did not kill my dandelions or creeping Charlie. Hopefully it will prevent crabgrass. On the positive side, the fertilizer seems to have worked well......lawn looks very health ( except for the above weeds)

Dandelions have never been healthier

Put this down to kill the broadleaf weeds that cropped up in my lawn after a drought last year. The grass greened up beautifully,but the weeds have never been healthier. This was a waste of money where killing weeds is concerned.

Triple action did no action

Two weeks ago I bought this over advertised Triple action. Spent good money for 0 results. The weeds are laughing, the ants are marching and clover is flourishing. How do I get a refund?

We are sorry to hear about your experience with Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action and appreciate your feedback. This product will not prevent broadleaf weeds (before or after the application) and it will not kill existing crabgrass or other grassy type weeds. For broadleaf weed control temperatures must be consistently (several days in a row) between 60 and 80 degrees. For listed grassy weeds to be prevented this has to be applied before the target grassy weeds germinate. A complete kill will take 2-4 weeks, depending on temperature conditions. 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 call 888-270-3714 for assistance.

Nice Green Grass this Spring

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very happy with the results of using Turf Builder Triple Action this year. Lush, green grass with no weeds. That's what we want!

Used it last year and was happy with the product.

Scotts, please enlarge the 'directions for application'. Those directions are the same size as all the rest of the information on the bag and they are hard to find. If you can't find the directions, one can not follow the directions.

Doesn't kill or prevent Poa Annua

Used in fall, has controlled broadleaf weeds and clover. Hasn't done anything to kill or prevent annual bluegrass which is my biggest issue in Bermuda during winter.

We are sorry to hear that the Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action did not prevent poa annua as expected. Please note, this only prevents crabgrass and select other weeds as listed on our website (label has a shortened weed list). Turf Builder Triple Action will prevent these weeds for no more than four months. To get the best results from the prevention portion of Turf Builder Triple Action, it should be applied before weed seeds germinate. 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 contact us to see what can be done.

Three in one is great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's great having a three in one product. My grass has started greening from the fertilizer and the weeds are gone. I would recommend this product to the average DIY home lawn person.

Product didn't kill a thing

This is a fertilizer and weed killer product. My limited grass is green and growing but so are the weeds. No weeds were killed. None. Zilch. Nada. Wanted to give 1 star in honor of Ryan Trahan.

We're sorry to read about your disappointment with Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action(I) and appreciate your feedback. Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action(I) will kill actively growing broadleaf weeds and prevent grassy weeds that are listed on the label. It will not prevent broadleaf weeds (before or after the application) and it will not kill existing crabgrass or other grassy type weeds. For broadleaf weed control temperatures must be consistently (several days in a row) between 60 and 80°F. For listed grassy weeds to be prevented this has to be applied before the target grassy weeds germinate. The lawn must be wet for the product to stick to the broadleaf weed leaves. It must remain on the weed leaves for 24 hours. After the first 24 hours the product must be watered in, this will help with the prevention of the weeds listed as being prevented such as crabgrass. Weeds may temporarily appear healthier and greener after an application of a weed control. The active ingredients trigger uncontrolled plant growth that causes weed listed on the label to die. You should notice the weeds begin to curl and yellow a few days after application due to this excessive growth. Weeds will die within 2 to 4 week period, depending on temperature conditions. 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.

impossible to figure out how much to apply

I don't have a Scotts spreader and the bag does not show how many lbs per square foot to apply, so I will guess how much to apply. Hopefully it will work better than the last Scotts product I used which did not work.
