Poor product

I bought 4 bags in February and applied as recommended through a Scotts spreader. I applied a month ago just before grass started to germinate. I now have thousands od dandelions and lots of crabgrass.

Clumpy Product

I cannot believe the amount of chunks this came in. I spent most of my time trying to break up the clumps. I'm not sure how the product itself actually works, but after reading reviews, I feel like I just wasted a lot of time and money.

Crab Grass Food

Purchased for 1 acre lot and parents yard. Followed app directions. Lawn greens well but no weed control and worsened crab grass outbreak later in season. Very disappointed. Money back ????

Hugely disappointing

Turf Builder Triple Action was hiextremely disappointing. It appears to have killed many spots of my lawn and has not dealt with the crabgrass. A waste of time and money.

Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action

Best ever tripe action...I am the envy of the neighborhood, as they all want green grass just like mine without weeds especially those dandelions of which we have none, and are surrounded by them everywhere on the street. Thanks Scotts.

Didn't work for dandelions

Bought this March 30th, applied a few days later. Now, 2 weeks later, there are dandelions all over the yard. Certainly didn't kill them off before or during their growth spurt, and they don't look at all like they will die off with this product.

No changes seen

I applied this to my lawn and have not seen a positive change at all. If anything, I have seen more weeds come up since I have used it. I followed all of the directions for application and still saw no change.

there's more to a brand name

I purchased and applied this produce, using the suggested application rate, to three lawns.. 50,000 sf of product. Initially we had greening but after only 20-30 day you could see the lawns having spotty brown spots and a overall brown tint to lawn with heavy clover coverage throughout the lawns. I've been a Scotts customer for over 40 years and cannot recommend this products use. The problem continues as we need additional product(s) to restore the lawns back to our liking.

We're sorry to read about your disappointment with Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action and appreciate your feedback. If the lawn starts to brown, check to make sure the roots are viable (gently tug to see if the roots are attached to the soil) if they are viable, water the lawn at least a 1/2 inch of water every 2 to 3 days for at least 3-4 weeks. The higher the temperatures the longer this watering routine should be practiced. Watering will help the lawn survive and/or recover. This product does not prevent broadleaf weeds (before or after the application). 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.

We're sorry to read about your disappointment with Turf Builder Southern Triple Action & Green Max Lawn Food Bundle and appreciate your feedback. For best results, this product should be applied when weeds are actively growing and when daytime temperatures are consistently between 60℉ and 90℉. Low or high temperatures will delay weed control. Although visible results may be seen within 24 hours, this product can take up to 3 weeks to completely kill weeds. 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.
