Scotts Turf Builder Weed & Feed5, 11.32 lbs.

I've never used this product before, but I'm glad I found it! My lawn had gotten so full of weeds, I decided to just kill everything with a broad-spectrum vegetation killer and start over. Waited until Fall, then sprayed the lawn, waited 2-3 weeks and sprayed it again to make sure everything was dead. Had to look at bare earth all winter, but it was for the best. This is where I messed up... In the spring, I tilled up the entire area and immediately put down some very expensive grass seed. I've since learned that it's best to till, wait a week or so for the weed seeds you just tilled up to sprout, then spray weed killer again to get rid of all the weeds before putting down grass seed. Having planted the grass seed right after tilling, the number of weeds that sprouted was insane. I didn't have a lawn, I had a huge patch of plantain, clover, Japanese clover, dollar weed, and crabgrass. Some of the grass grew, but it was mostly weeds. I've read a lot of reviews for grass seed that complain about nothing but weeds growing, but their description indicates that they did the same thing I did and planted right after tilling. Anyway... I found this product and followed directions to hopefully kill off the weeds. I knew that I was going to have a lot of bare spots (since I had so many weeds that had crowded out the grass), but I planned to over-seed this fall, anyway. The plantain, dollar weed, and clover started to die within 2 days and were completely gone within a week. The Japanese clover, however, took a while longer to start to die. I was starting to think that I was going to have to re-apply this or a different brand to kill it, but after almost 2 weeks it finally started to wither and has now died off. I do have a lot of areas that need to be re-seeded, but at least the weeds are under control and mostly gone. The crabgrass will have to be treated a different way since this product does not kill actively growing crabgrass, and I'm overseeding this fall so I can't use a pre-emergent next spring, either. The combination of fertilizer and weed killer is great, though, since crabgrass is opportunistic and grows when turf grass is not well-fed or maintained. Hopefully, ensuring the health of the lawn will help prevent crabgrass from taking hold next spring. I'm happy with the results, even though it took longer than I expected for some of the weeds. The biggest difficulty I had was keeping the dog off the treated area for a few days (the info on the bag says no pets/humans for 24 hours, but I erred on the side of caution and waited until it rained before letting her back on the treated area).

Simple and effective. Attach it to the hose, spray it on and let it do its thing. The weeds start dying off and the grass responds well to the fertilizer, noticeably greener and healthier looking after a few applications. Easy to use and covers a good amount of ground without going through the bottle too fast. Does exactly what it says on the label. Solid product, would buy again.

Worked better than expected. Killed the weeds that were sprayed and grass had greened up nicely . Will definitely use again when it's time.

Have always used in the 4-Step Program for my lawn. Love it. The only negative is that it doesn’t kill the red-stemmed clover by the road. Comes from winter plowing! Tried (store brands, etc,) the others. They just don’t compare to Scotts! Pay more, get results more!

So much easier on my legs than pushing the spreader. Works great five days later my grass is green as can be.

Okay, especially for the price. However, the weed killer didn't work as well as I hoped though the fertilizer seemed to do well. For some reason the weed killer failed to kill any clover, which covers my lawn, and I noticed some other weeds it failed to kill also.

Love this product - I always use it when areas need a touch up of new grass. Works great and the new grass stays growing. Secret to getting the seeds to take hold and the grass grows to look great - keep it watered and results are quick and wonderful!

treating emergent goat head weed on new lawn... treated at 5pm the night before and with rain and sprinklers going off... still saw evidence that it was dying 24 hours later... definitely works! Easy to apply.. just need long enough hose LOL.
