Great product !!
We have been having trouble with weeds in our yard and grass coverage for quite some time now. We knew we had to do something and this weed and feed worked very well to reduce the amount of weeds in the hard and help with grass growth. We still have a while to go but we have seen improvement after using this product.

This stuff will kill the weeds
I absolutely love the Scotts Tief Builder Bonus Southern Weed and feed for my grass. I have two properties that I must maintain and they both have a lot of weeds growing especially dollarweed. When I heard about this product, I knew I definitely needed to try it. I've used this product for over a month now and it has killed off all the weeds growing and helped the new grass to come in. We bought pallets of sod to lay down and used this product afterwards and I have to say my grass is thriving. I definitely recommend using this product to kill the weeds and feed the grass to have a beautiful lawn.

Good on dollar weeds
This did a good job of keeping out dollar weeds from regrowing in my central florida lawn. my lawn gets watered three times a week. i still have some on the edges but i didn’t get too much of the product there. i didn’t use much of the product so that was nice but i imagine it will have to keep getting applied routinely

Good fertilizer
This fertilizer was fairly easy to use, but the packaging was a little heablvy and I'm pregnant so I had my stepdad help me. Our grass is currently growing a bunch of weeds, and I do feel like it's helping a bit. We just haven't had much time to test it, but so far we're seeing a reduction in weed growth. It's easy to store, but I feel like the packaging could use a more storing-friendly design. Overall it's been a nice product.

Effective and easy to use
Scott's Turf builder Weed and Feed for St. Augustine grass, is very easy to use, and effective. With a few applications, this weed fertilizer will get the job done. Results are not instant, but I'm positive it's working. Great product!

Anticipation awaits…..
We live in Florida and are currently in a drought so we haven’t had a chance to try this as we have a water use ban. When this lifts we plan on using this on our yard and rejuvenating our brown St. Augustine grass. Hoping this will make it luscious and green again and get rid of the horrendous “Florida Snow” weeds.

Great fertilizer
This Scott’s weed in feed did wonders on my grass. It got rid of all the weeds where my mulch is and fertilized my grass and it is growing beautifully. I had enough in the bag to do my whole front yard. I would highly recommend this product and I will definitely be purchasing again.
