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) prevents crabgrass and other listed grassy weeds and a limited number of broadleaf weeds from developing for up to 4 months. It does not kill mature crabgrass or other existing weeds. It does not prevent dandelions, clover or most other broadleaf weeds. Timing of the application is important to control crabgrass. Apply in early spring before the 3rd or 4th mowing of the lawn. Apply before temperatures reach 80 degrees (crabgrass starts to germinate once temps reach the 80's). Apply before dandelions reach the "puffball" stage. It is important to water the lawn immediately after the first 24 hours of 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.

Disappointed in 3 and 1 product

Used this product 2 weeks ago. Still have dandelions. Was thinking of buying Ultrageen 3 times fertilizer but not sure if it's worth the investment

Does this work?

I used this in April and was advised not to apply any other product for 4 months. Now my grass is being overtaken by weeds.

We are sorry to hear about your experience with Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action. This product will only kill existing broadleaf weeds and 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.

Worthless

Have tried Triple Action and Weed & Feed. Worthless. Weeds are thriving. Grass is dying or browning out. Don't waste your money.

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. The product 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.
