Scott’s step 2 KILLED my perfectly plush lawn
Finally got my lawn where I wanted it and applied Scott’s step 2 exactly as the package explained - While leaves are wet and not before any heavy rains. 5 days later my lawn was completely torched. I am devastated. Took me a ton of work last fall and this spring to get my lawn where I wanted. Literally have to start over. I’ll never use this stuff again and suggest that nobody does. Absolute garbage.

Unilaterally obliterated my whole lawn
I have used their 4 step program on multiple lawns for years. This one is the last. Step 2 unilaterally destroyed nearly my entire picture perfect lawn in one foul application. The front, side and back are all dead and patchy as can be. But what area is still perfectly green? My garden yard. Where no Scotts products are applied ever because of the edible plants. And because I purchased it from my local garden center, and not one of their listed agents, I imagine I am going to have to eat every dead blade by myself with no assistance from them. Avoid their products.

Absolutely the worst.... step 2 sucks
This product is terrible step 2 is the worst ever My lawn looked beautiful. Before I applied this crap to my Lawn .. hoping step 3 can help me with the brown spots my lawn is covered with dry grass I work so hard to make this right. I raked a few brown spots with a thatching rake took out some dry grass but most of it still holding on was thinking of running my thatching machine on it before applying step 3. I originally put down weed x early March I applied step 2 late June now I'm I'm spot weeding and spot spraying weeds.. since that too I've been watering once a day at 6:00 p.m. 40 minutes to try and flush .. so far no good so I'm going to go back to 30 minutes a day it's a real bummer... I know you guys aren't going to change anything but hopefully this can prevent a hard-working man who works during the day and tends to his lawn everyday from having these atrocious results good luck

does not work
Killed no lawn violets, barely any clover.Did it in a cross pattern so not to have missed spots. Lawn was dewy and material was sticking to leaves. Not worth the money or time spent.

Grass turning Brown
Been using the 4 step program for 4 years now and have had great results. I just applied step 2 and can see it’s killing my clover, which is great. I’m am noticing some of my grass is turning brown as well. Never had this problem before.

Two out of three is bad
I put step 2 down in early June as directed. Unfortunately for the past 2 out of three years it destroyed my front lawn. Used to be a great product. I didn’t use it last year. I used the crab grass prevention twice instead and my lawn was perfect all summer
This year I used the step two again and it looks like I bomb hit it again. Please fix it or use a new formula for step two. I think maybe go back to the old recipe

Burn Warning !
After applying step 2 4 weeks ago my lawn is TOASTED in many spots and FULL of weeds. Step 1 worked like a charm but Step 2 did the exact opposite of what it said it would do. I wont be buying again. Very disappointed !!
