        A:  You should read the directions to be sure, but we have never had a problem with it. 

        by|May 6, 2022

          A:  Scotts Turf Builder Southern Lawn Fertilizer should be watered in after application especially is there is activity expected on the lawn, there is no rain for several days or temperatures exceed 90 degrees.

          by|May 6, 2022

            A:  More than likely it will burn and kill grass if it does not rain within a day of application.

                  Scott's products ❤️
                  I have been using Scott's products since early 70's everywhere I have lived. I use each specific product for each season every 6-8 weeks with Regular Turf builder in between the specific season products. Always the best in the neighborhood. Super thick and healthy. Will NEVER use another product. EVER! Other lawns in the neighborhood look ok until you get up close. They're DDWs(distance does wonders). Happy with Scotts.

                    Does the job
                    Works well. I wish application timing would better accommodate spring aeration.

                    More effective application.
                    It works well but putting some water on lawn before you apply would help it work better on weeds.

                    Forgot to add Halts to my bags
                    Spent almost $200 on Turf Builder with Halts and my lawn looks like crap. Big patches of crabgrass throughout. Put down as per directions at same time as last year but crabgrass grew everywhere.

                    This product was disappointing.
                    I used this product per instruction. The fertilizer did a nice job of greening and perking up the grass. It apparently also fertilized the clover, dandelions, and crabgrass as especially the clover is taking over.

                    PW53, we're sorry you didn't get the results you expected after using Scotts Turf Builder Halts Crabgrass Preventer with Lawn Food. This product will only prevent listed weeds when applied according to label directions, it will not control existing weeds.

                      Unhappy with results
                      I have been using scotts weed and feed for the last year faithfully. I am not happy i have done exactly what the directions say. I have more junk weeds in my yard than i have ever had before. I am very unhappy with all the time effort and money Ihave put into these products.
