I used this product 6 weeks ago. Trying to get rid of clover. Seemed to enhance the clover and killed nothing. Burned my grass and now I have weeds and clover

We're sorry to read about your disappointment with Scotts Turf Builder Weed & Feed and appreciate your feedback. We recommend watering weeds prior to application, as product must stick to weed leaves to be effective. Product should be left undisturbed and not watered for 24 hours after the application. When temperatures are high (over 90°+), weeds slow their growth down and cannot absorb the product. If weeds are not getting regular watering, they cannot absorb the product. Weeds may temporarily appear healthier and greener after an application of a weed control. The active ingredients trigger uncontrolled plant growth that causes weeds listed on the label to die. 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.
    My first time using this particular product that kills clover and many more weeds. My yard looks great! I've been using Scott's products for years. I am very happy with the results!

    Feed your lawn ....FEED IT....
    I have many friends who use product and the majority of them apply it in late April. Its not going to work since weeds are not actively growing and the temperature is not 60-90 degrees in the northeast. Pay attention to the detail in terms of "how and when to apply" When used in accoradnce to the directions the product works

      Scotts Weed & Feed Does The Job.
      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Scotts Turf Builder does exactly what it promises. I’ve used this many times over the years to keep my yard hopefully weed free. Ensure you read and understand the directions. It states it will kill 57 different weeds. The area to be covered MUST be wet before any application. I had to use the garden hose to wet the required area. I used the Elite spreader which is set at 4.5 setting. Walk in a steady speed during the process. As usual, I had no issues to worry about. Great Product if used CORRECTLY.

        Lawn saying bye bye weeds and hello healthy grass.
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love how easy it is to weed and feed my grass with Scotts Turf weed and feed. Just put it in the spreader and go. Looks great in a couple of days. Nice healthy green grass. Less watering and more time out in the sun.

          Thanks Scotts!!
          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We paired the Scotts Turf Builder Weed & Feed with the Scotts Elite Spreader. This product is great and keeps the weeds under control. Make sure to follow the directions closely. The clover and dandelions wilted the day after use. Proud Scotts lawn!

            Fast growth and no weeds in the lawn!
            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] No weeds and green lawn! This product has delivered great results, i was cutting the grass twice a week due to rapid growth. There are no weeds to speak of in the yard. The only thing slowing this fertilizer down is the fact that it hasnt rained in my area for weeks. I would definitely use this again, no burned spots and fast growth.

              No more pesky Weeds
              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This really helps to keep weeds and dandelions out of my grass. Ever since I started treating, my lawn has looked so much fuller and greener. I even have got compliments on my grass. It looks so much more healthier and now I dont have to worry about the pesky weeds.

The grass also grows fast. There are no weeds! So, it definitely does what it claims to do and we are quite happy with this product!

                  Ruined my lawn
                  This product is terrible. My lawn was green. Then I applied the spring turf builder after rain as the instructions using the Scott’s spreader. My lawn turned orange, then yellow . Now mainly dead . I never used a turf builder on lawns in my life and never had a problem. Many people recommended this , so I tried it. Terrible! Now I will have to have the lawn reseeded in the fall. I will not use this product.

                    Not worth it.
                    Applied as the per the directions. Some of the dandelions are withering others are not. I have used this product for 10+ years. With great results. I purchased 12 of the 32 oz. liquid spray bottles I have an acre to spray. I don't know what Scott's did to their formula but it has changed and is less effective than previous if at all. I just wasted a ton of money.

                      Perfect
                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This turf builder means business! It is very simple to apply. The application is quick. I has positive results and no new weeds within one weeks time. I like that it comes in a large bag. It is also lightweight and easy to handle.

                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fantastic product! Really helped out r grass fill in where the dog had dug it up. Good at keeping the weeds down as well. You can use over the whole yard or in a specific area depending on the needs of your yard!

                              This product worked very poor.
                              I applied this for back yard about a week ago. It killed some dandelions and some clovers and many grasses. And many dandelions and clovers are still grow too well. My backyard is now large areas of brown spots all over.

                                Mystery Grass turning green
                                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My side yard has mostly mystery grass. Thus, I decided to apply to one area near the middle. I spread with a broadcast spreader trying to stay in middle area. Some of the green died out, but the remainder turned dark green. I like the product.

                                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Weed free lawn This product worked wonders on my lawn. Dandelions everywhere this year, and I would say 99.9% gone today 5/21/23. Other weeds in grass seem to be gone as well. Would highly recommend Scott’s Turf Builder Weed And Feeds.

                                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Been using for years, never disappointed. Apply with Scotts spreader, quick and easy. It does the rest.Within a week, watch weeds curl and disappear while nourishing and greening your lawn. Thumbs up!

                                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lawn is lush and no dandelions / very few weeds. The grass grows sooo fast in the spring when fertilized that we do have to mow very often though! I always have a few yellow/bare spots from my dogs peeing but other than those small areas my yard is looking thick and green.

                                        Great Results
                                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not an overnight fix, it does take time but it works. First, you really need a spreader, it can be just a simple hand held one that you fill. Best to keep your pets inside until the dust settles, I used it in an area we recently reseeded that already was covered in dandelions and assorted weeds along with nearby established lawn that was more weed than grass. After spreading, you watch and wait, I did have brown spots over time because I really had more weeds than grass but now I was able to throw down new grass seed and get a better looking lawn. Feed your lawn not your weeds and see the difference over time.

                                          Greatest weed killer and fertilizer on the market
                                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I always say as a homeowner you can’t beat Scott’s products. Always easy to use for residential lawns. From instructions to results. Apply to a damp grass so product sticks to grass blades. Don’t water for 48 hours. Then water and watch weeds die and grass get green

                                            Great at Feeding the Grass. OK for Weed Control
                                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great fertilizer, greened up my grass in about 7 days. The blades look very hardy and healthy. Spreads very evenly in my Scott's drop spreader. It also keeps common weeds (dandelions, clover etc) in check. My neighbor (whose lawn is adjacent to mine) is jealous - he hires a "professional landscaper" who can't eliminate his dandelion problem! However, it has done nothing for a weed I have in my front lawn, I believe it's wild violet. But I've had trouble controlling this weed for a long time.

It helps to keep my lawn looking amazing. Virtually all of the dandelions and clover are gone and I feel my lawn looks very lush and green. I apply with my Scotts spreader to a wet lawn.

                                                    Put down two 43 pound bags on 32,000 sq ft of the Scotts weed and feed. After 4 weeks and 5 mowings still have clusters of dandelions all over that are flowering. I even put down Scotts winterizer last fall. I have used Scotts for years living their turf builder but those yellow bags translate to flowering dandelions. Located in north east Indiana. Put down second week of April with Scotts Lawm Pro sprrader.

                                                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just recently used a bag of Scotts Turf Builder Weed & Feed on my front yard. I applied it before it was scheduled to rain the next day and a week later I can already see the weeds curling up and yellowing. We have dandelions, clover, crab grass, etc. It has NOT killed ALL of the weeds but it has begun to help kill some of them. I walked over my yard very quickly so I may not have applied enough to do what was totally necessary to do the job. But like I said I do see it killing some of the weeds throughout my yard. Clover is taking over my yard so that type of weed is my main concern. I would appreciate it killing them completely but that isn't happening. Hopefully it does enough damage to stop them from taking over. The directions were easy to follow on the bag using my Scott's spreader. I just set it according to the type of spreader I had and went about spreading the Scotts Turf Builder Weed & Feed on my lawn. I have included a couple photos to show how it is yellowing and wilting the weeds.
