Response from Scotts Consumer ServicesMay 16, 2024
We're sorry to read about your disappointment with Scotts Turf Builder Southern Lawn Food and appreciate your feedback.

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. Grass will not respond during periods of dormancy. If the lawn isn't receiving at least 1 inch of water per week then the lawn will not green up as fast. A stressed lawn will not green up with the application of a fertilizer. A continued or general yellow look may indicate a lack of iron.

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 877-220-3089 if we can further assist. Scotts

Great products that worked well for me.
I've used this regularly since we moved in (2019). I had good Bermuda in the front yard and a hodge podge in the back. Now the front yard is do thick niece's and nephews come over to walk and roll in it. I do the same. The back is much more even with 100% coverage now and no bare spots. I use the Scott's app and follow that fairly closely. Love the outcome Scott's. Thank you!

    Fertilizer worked well and greened up the lawn after it was rained in.

    There is nothing wrong with the product, but I had to buy 3 small bags when I really wanted to buy the large bags of fertilizer. Home Depot had the large bags but they had allowed them to get wet and were all as hard as a rock. This cost me an additional $25.

    We're sorry to read about your disappointment with Scotts Turf Builder Southern Lawn Food and appreciate your feedback.

    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. We suggest performing a soil pH test. Grass will not respond during periods of dormancy. If the lawn isn't receiving at least 1 inch of water per week then the lawn will not green up as fast. When mowing do not remove more than 1/3 of the grass blade at a time. A stressed lawn will not green up with the application of a fertilizer. A continued or general yellow look may indicate a lack of iron. We suggest trying an iron supplement or follow-up in 6 to 8 weeks with a fertilizer containing iron.

    A very good fertilizer, though there were some clumps inside the bag that I had to break up.
