Terrible product flow for SummerGuard fertilizer
I just got finish applying Turf Builder Summerguard Lawn food with a Scotts speedy green 3000. First thing I noticed was how large the particles were. When I used the suggested setting of 3 3/4 hardly anything came out. I gradually increased to a 9 setting which I have never used. I have been putting scott's fertilizer on the same lawn for 25 years, four times a year. This time, even at a 9 setting I have fertilizer left over. The product simply did not flow very well. I kept have to "shake" the dispenser to get product to flow.

Killed my grass and changed pH
I put some of this in a few thin areas in grass that was otherwise healthy and green. The grass in that area is now mostly dead as the photo show. I couldn’t figure it out so tested the pH and it’s way off now and too acidic. I’ve put lime down to counteract it but will likely have to pull out the dead grass. I worked on a large section of this grass last summer including laying new sod myself and now to have to do it all again after using this is beyond frustrating.

Caused Verticillium Wilt in my Silver Maple Tree
Contained mold spores that 100% killed my young silver maple tree… The tree had been planted three years earlier and I had mulched around it for the first couple years. Since the tree was thriving and had grown a few feet the year prior, I decided to seed the area under the tree. I put this product down and now it’s June and the leaves are completely withered and are now dropping from the tree. Look under the tree in my photo and also notice it didn’t grow any actual grass smh

100% Waste of money
A 100% waste of my money. I planted another product in my front yard with great results... I don't think a single blade of grass came out of either of the 2 bags I bought. You've been warned.

Both excessive moisture and not enough moisture can inhibit seed germination.

Only grew weeds. Wasted a lot of money!
We used this product on both our front and back yard. The front yard we just wanted a little more thickness to our lawn, in the back we were growing new grass. After using this product our front yard is full of weeds and our backyard only grew weeds. Very disappointed in this product. I feel like it was a waste of money, effort, and time!

We're sorry to hear Scotts Turf Builder Thick'R Lawn didn't meet your expectations. Weed seeds are a natural part of native soil, so it is normal to have weeds grow when planting grass seed. Reach out to us here for assistance with our product guarantee: https://www.scotts.com/en-us/help-center

The product is great but the Scotts spreader they
The product is great but the Scotts spreader they recommend sucks. I applied the three in one seed recommended on the instructions with the Scotts spreader but I could not see that the spreader was dumping a stripe right in front so now my lawn has green dark lush stripes.
