It Works!
This Scott’s turf builder is very effective! I used it on patches in my yard that had densely grown grass other parts of my lawn. The grass grew thicker and vibrant! The application is not difficult at all, whether using a feeder or by hand. I love how it’s a three and one formula, the seedlings, fertilizer, and the soil improver. I will continue to use this product and look forward to having beautiful thick, healthy grass throughout the year.

Was very easy to use and spread! Worked astonishing well and made my yard thicker and fuller. Evened out my lawn and wasn’t as stinky as others. Grass was strong and beautiful! Will buy again

So surprisingly awesome! Great outcome
This stuff is tremendously awesome!! We’ve had so many spots where the grass was either completely gone or was barely anything there. We used it on the entire grass and it made such a difference! The empty spots are no longer there. The grass looks so much better that I was so surprised because I wasn’t sure what to expect. This stuff has become my boyfriend’s favorite grass product to use for our lawn to look much better.

Great product!
This fertilizer has worked really well for us. We put the builder down by hand and watered the ground, the grass is growing well, and you can see the growth between the 2 photos that happened within 14 days. Overall, we like the product and plan on using it in other spots that we have in our lawn.

Surprisingly effective
Amazing before and after, extremely easy to use. It laid in the soil very well and the smell wasn’t too strong out of the bag. It was little bit of a small portion but well worth it.
