My lawn was greener!

My husband and I applied the product to our front and back lawns in under 30 minutes, just before a rainfall. Within a week or so (with daily rainfall), we noticed a considerable difference in our lawn.

Product is awesome

This is my first project I did on my own for my backyard. I paid to have sod put on my yard and it did not last long. That was a big waste of money but lesson learned so I decided do it on my own and I am very happy with this product.

Burnt lawn

I also used Scott's in the orange bag and it burnt my lawn as well. Now I have brown/yellow spots through out my front and back grass. This is so disappointing because my grass is usually so lush and green when I use Scott's!

I enjoyed how green my grass looked after using the 2% iron additive.

I wanted to give a boost to my lawn in Cincinnati in September. I purchased the 2% iron additive Turfbuilder and, lo and behold, my grass looked a lushful green after a good rain. I highly recommend this product.

Great product

It greened the lawn nicely but the longvity was not there. I wanted a seasonal greening but only got 2 months of greening from this product. Reapplications was required. Would be nice to have a one and done product.

Best lawn EVER!

Amazing positive results from such little work. Greenest, thickest, most weed free lawn ever after spreading only one application. Will continue using as directed to maintain my beautiful lawn.

Only product you should buy.

This is the best turf builder on the market. I would not buy any other. The proof is in the grass. I went from just mud to a lawn that people think is sod. Thank You Scotts.

Followed instructions- did nothing. Waste of money

I bought this, followed the directions and it had NO effect on the lawn. I thought this product would help but it did nothing. Very disappointed. Will never buy again.

We are sorry that you are disappointed with your purchase of Scotts Turf Builder Lawn Food. The most common reason a lawn does not respond to fertilizer is soil pH. Soil pH must be between 5.5-7.5 for fertilizer to be absorbed by the grass. You can contact us if you would like to continue discussing this or if you want to know about our product guarantee. You can reach us here http://tinyurl.com/mds8zo5.

Sunflower seeds in with fertilizer!

There were sunflower seeds in with the fertilizer. Some were unshelled and some were shelled and clumped together. Needless to say they clogged up my spreader. It looked like the seeds that are in a bird cake. Poor quality control!
