Turf Builder Winterguard 14 lbs. 5,000 sq. ft. Fall Lawn Fertilizer Plus Weed Control

Despite the several below freezing temperatures, our lawn is still green. Some late onset weeds persist but the lawn is mostly free of them. Hopefully this product protects until weed prevention is applied next year. As with my Turf Builder Ultra-Feed review, using this product may have me re-think my regular Scott’s Four Step routine.

The Scott Turf Builder Winterguard Fall Weed & Feed will help prepare my lawn for the spring. It can be applied at anytime during the fall to help repair any damage to my grass. To make sure the lawn food was distributed properly, I used a spreader but you can also manually spread it around your lawn. So far the lawn looks healthier than it was and the weeds are gone. I highly recommend this product. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

We were having a problem with browning and weeds in our small back yard. Looking for a solution to apply now (Fall) with hopes of a greener Spring lawn, we decided to apply Scotts WinterGuard Fall Weed & Feed. It comes in a large bag which has clear easy to follow instructions printed right on the bag. We first mowed the lawn- leaving grass clippings- and then watered the lawn. Per the instructions, you apply on a wet lawn! We used our Scotts spreader, set at 3 ¼. It was easy to quickly spread our small area (see picture). Our winter season in the Carolinas is short, so we will wait for Spring in hopes of a greener, lush lawn. We believe this WinterGuard Fall Weed & Feed will solve our yard problem- if it’s as effective as easy to use, we’ll see results soon. Will post another picture in the Spring and change the star rating after the product has time to work. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Used this fertilizer thinking that my yard would look great. But, the results of it was very disappointing. The photo attached will speak for itself.

We purchased this and put it on in October. Weather was cool as instructions stated. did exactly as the. We went from a green lush lawn to a dead yard in less then 3 weeks. We have used Scott’s for all our fertilizer needs EVERY SEASON.. this year it murdered my yard insert sad face

I moved into a new construction home in July 2019. The builder had laid sod and it was all I could do to water it constantly to ensure it wouldn’t die in the July/August heat. In the Fall I decided to use the Fall fertilizer with Winterguard to ensure our lawn would be the best on the block. When early Spring came, I COULD NOT believe how beautiful our grass was! It was such a beautiful dark green color and so thick and lush. We had to start cutting our grass weeks before our neighbors since theirs hadn’t even started growing yet. Later in Spring, I used Scott’s Weed and Feed fertilizer. I plan to do 3 different treatments each year. (Fall Winterguard, Spring Weed and Feed and then Summerguard in the Summer) So far by only doing the 2 treatments (Fall and Spring) my lawn already looks like a million bucks! I couldn’t be more happy with the different Scott’s products we have used so far. When I did the Fall Winterguard application, I saw all of our weeds in the sod disappear within days! Since continuing into the Spring with Weed and Feed fertilizer, I will tell you that our lawn is completely weed free! Today I started on the Summerguard fertilizer treatment and I am so hopeful that our lawn will continue to look amazing during the hottest and most dry time of the year. I am so happy with these products that we’ve used so far. I know they’re pricy, but it is so worth it! Our neighbors all have sod as well, but there is a VERY OBVIOUS difference between our lawn and all of theirs. No one else has used any fertilizing products at all and you can definitely tell! I would never even guess that they had sod. I’m just amazed at what our lawn looks like...all thanks to Scott’s fertilizers. FYI: we live in the panhandle of WV sandwiched between MD and VA to give you an idea of climate.

Better than its bargain brand competitors, Scotts always delivers on its promise to deliver a nice looking lawn within days of application. This product was no different. I've been applying the product on my lawn in October for several years, and the results have been just great. From greening up the lawn in the Fall season to minimizing weeds in the Spring. I provided two recent photographs of my lawn in the Northeast section of the US during early November. The pictures says a lot about the results we received from the application.

Easy to apply, just load it into your spreader, set the appropriate setting and walk your lawn. Applied the fertilizer about 2.5 weeks ago and lawn is looking excellent. Spread the fertilizer after our first rain after a major drought. Grass came back strong, healthy and super GREEN!

Used it last year, and it made a positive improvement in the spring

This will be my first winter at this home, this product was highly recommended
