Crabgrass

Killed the existing grass, nothing new grew except for crabgrass, lots and lots of crabgrass
Response from ScottsBy Agent, Consumer Service, August 3, 2020
Doc322, we are sorry to hear you were disappointed with our Scotts Turf Builder Thick'R Lawn Sun & Shade. Soil preparation brings weed seeds to the surface. All Scotts seed is thoroughly cleaned and is 99.9% weed seed free. Our grass seed is harvested in June/July, well before the time of crabgrass maturity which occurs during late summer when it sets seed. We are committed to making this right for you. Please contact us at https://tinyurl.com/y8nvfsca and refer to this review so we can further assist you.

Excellent Product!!

I bought this product one month ago and its working amazing! I had some work done in my yard putting asphalt down leaving a mess and a massive dirt patch. I applied this and in a week I started to see growth. I tilled the dirt first to loosen the dirt up, spread the dirt evenly and applied my first seed. Then I raked in the seed gently and applied another one with the Scott's broadcast spreader. Following the directions on the bag I used it on setting 9, and the results are great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've used this product for years and it works very well. You see results immediately, within a few days. My lawn is fresh and green and ready for the summer months. I put this down with my Scott's drop spreader, that works best.

I bought this at the end of the summer last year, at Costco, to put down after taking down our above ground pool and it produced more weeds than grass. I thought Scott's was supposed to be the best, but never again.

We're sorry to read about your disappointment with Scotts Turf Builder Thick'R Lawn Sun & Shade and appreciate your feedback.
It is normal to have some weeds germinate when seeding. There are approximately 10,000 weed seeds per 1 cubic foot of native soil. Soil preparation brings weed seeds to the surface. All Scotts seed is thoroughly cleaned and is 99.9% weed seed free. Our grass seed is harvested in June/July, well before the time of crabgrass maturity which occurs during late summer when it sets seed. Therefore it's not possible our crop can be contaminated with crabgrass seeds. Weed seeds can be blown or carried into area prior to grass seed becoming established.
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.
