Disappointed
on April 26, 2023
Posted by: sealer
I have used Scotts products for many years and have had faith with everything I've purchased. Sadly to say that not only did this product not kill the weeds but did nothing to fertilize my yard. I've always taken great care my lawn, moving to the Georgia area I wasn't familiar with the types of grass or soils conditions but I thought I'd try once again. Sadly to say I was wrong.

We're sorry to read about your disappointment with Scotts Turf Builder Southern Triple Action and appreciate your feedback.
Temperatures must be consistently (several days in a row) between 60 and 90 degrees for target weeds to be actively growing. It can take up to 3 weeks for the weeds to begin to yellow. This product does not prevent new weed development only kills weeds that were actively growing at the time of application.
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 reach out to us at 888-270-3714 if we can further assist.

It did nothing.

Followed the instructions on the bag and it didn't get rid of any weeds or clover at all. Can't upload any photos because they are "too large". Disappointed in this product.

Does not work, feed the weed and kills grass
on May 25, 2023
Posted by: Nick23
I applied this product 1 month ago. I paid close attention to the instructions. My regular grass is burned , dead. Some of the lighter weeds are gone, and the Crabgrass is thriving.
The only things that seems to have worked is getting rid of the fire ants, at least so far.
Terribly disappointed. I have to reseed my lawn

Poor quality control?
on March 3, 2024
Posted by: Roy J Couvillion
While I'm usually confident and satisfied with Scotts products and purchase them over less expensive brands. I'm disappointed with this purchase.
Three of the four bags were a mixture of approximately 2/3 white and 1/3 blue pellets; one of the bags had an even mixture of white, blue, and pink pellets.
The primary appeal of this product was the Triple Action. Did I just waste my money, time, and energy just to spend more money, time, and energy to get the results I need?

Had no effect on weeds

It hasn't had any impact on the clover or weeds in my yard. Maybe what I bought was last years stock from a box store but clover still thriving.

I used this product in October on my st augustine grass In northeast florida. I followed the instructions on the bag correctly. Picture 1 is my lawn before using. Picture 2 is 4 weeks later. I went from having one of the nicest lawns to one of worst lawns. Total disappointment.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Simple instructions, practically foolproof. I like the pink color, makes it easy to see your path. 3 in 1 formula makes lawn care simple. No need for seperate products, saves money overall.
Pros: Easy to Use, Good Directions, Quality, compact package easy to handle
Cons: does not have resealing closure.
I would recommend this to a friend!
