    We are sorry to hear that your Vigoro Lawn Fertilizer did not work as expected. If your lawn does not respond to the fertilizer, this may be a sign of a soil pH imbalance. We recommend performing a soil pH test to rule this out. 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 call us and refer to your review to see what can be done. Our phone number is 877-220-3089. Scotts_Vigoro

    We apologize for the experience you have had with your Vigoro Lawn Fertilizer. The fertilizer may not have absorbed due to your soil pH levels. The soil must have a pH level of 5.5-7.5 in order for the grass to absorb the fertilizer. Also grass maybe under stress from insect activity or disease. We do have a product guarantee that covers all of our products. We would like to speak with you more about this issue. At your earliest convenience, we ask that you call us at 877-220-3089 and refer to your review so that we can discuss our guarantee. Scotts_Vigoro

      Burn spots in the lawn and no greening
      I purchased this product on 7/11/15 (at the Vernon Hills HD store) and applied it the same day to the lawn using a Scott rotary spreader and the correct setting. 72 hours later, the lawn looks worse. I do not see any difference in the shade of the lawn--it does not look any greener at all, despite that we had some rain and the lawn has barely been walked on. Worse yet, there are burn spots on the lawn despite the guarantee that it would not burn. This was disappointing. I'll return the rest of the bag for a refund and try Scott's next time.

      Turned burning brown to green
      My beautiful green lawn turned brown after it was fertilized with a leading fertilizer. Not only did it not rain, I also didn’t turn on my sprinkler system. Instead I purchased the guaranteed no burning Vigoro Lawn Fertilizer. Within a week my lawn was a beautiful green again. Thanks to Vigoro Lawn Fertilizer. I’m very pleased with the results.

      Started getting green grass within 3 days - works as advertised - great
      The lawn fertilizer was very easy to spread and covers a lot of ground for the portion size. With a little rain/sprinkler system our grass began to grow immediately and have vibrant color.

      Works well, it’s cheaper than all the other fancy option that in my opinion don’t provide anything more for the added cost

      It’s good but extremely expensive! Most likely won’t buy it again, especially when it was March $24 and then that being $60. I’m tired of the pricing mislabeling at Home Depot, it’s happening way too often.

      Do not use this product. I have huge brown spots every where from burning out the grass.

      Fired my lawn chemical service, my grass was very yellow and I kept having to call them out. Normally I do it myself but wanted to see if they could do it better. They will from here on out be known as truyellow to me. Anyways threw this down because nearing the end of summer I didn’t want to spend a ton of money on fertilizer. I was really satisfied with this product. Started greening within two days and then looked like it was really coming to life within the next week. Then the rains came and I have to say my yard is up there with all the neighbors who spend thousands on their lawn care. Good product would definitely buy again.

      Dangerous for pet
      My cat a British shorthair died within 48 hours after I applied the product to the lawn. He was 4 years old. No sign of poisoning Only he went sleep and did not wake up. He was on the ground couple times each day in the morning.there is nothing on label to have your pet closed inside home.

        Burned up lawn
        I've gone through many types of fertilizers, even quick release overapplied, and not once has it ever burned like this did instantly. Put brown patches and burn spots all throughout what was healthy turf, and I actually applied LESS than the specified amount and watered day of. 24 hours brown patches appeared and 48 hrs later patches of grass are dead. Use anything but this.

          Vigoro is an excellent fertilizer for my lawn. The product keeps my lawn nice and green. I use the product every three months. The product does what I want it to do.
