      We're sorry to read about your disappointment with Scotts Turf Builder Southern Lawn Food and appreciate your feedback.

      If your grass is dying due to heat or drought, this product will not work. When grass is dry or drought-stressed, the grass is no longer taking up nutrients but is instead dormant. We recommend watering the lawn thoroughly for a couple of days prior to using this product and also ensuring the temperature is not above 85F when you apply. If the grass is totally dead, you may need to reseed those areas.

      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 877-220-3089 if we can further assist. Scotts

          The consistency of the product throughout the entire bag was excellent. I used a Vigoro hand held spreader and was able to apply the fertilizer very evenly over my entire lawn. It was applied a week ago so I am still awaiting the final results.

          We're sorry to read about your disappointment with Scotts Turf Builder Southern Lawn Food and appreciate your feedback.

          The most common reason a lawn does not respond to fertilizer is soil pH Soil pH must be between 5.5-7.5 for fertilizer to be absorbed by the grass. We recommend performing a soil pH test. If the lawn isn't receiving at least 1 inch of water per week then the lawn will not green up as fast. When mowing do not remove more than 1/3 of the grass blade at a time. A stressed lawn will not green up with the application of a fertilizer.

          Product is good, HD handling poor
          The Scotts Turf Builder product is good, but HD handles it poorly. This should not be left in the weather to absorb moisture. I bought bags that are extremely grimy and have absorbed moisture and clumped solid. Users have to break up the fertilizer by hand, but small remaining clumps clog spreaders. I read the review guidelines and understand that my complaint isn't with the Scotts product, but this is a legitimate issue. HD handles a premium product poorly, and users have to deal with it.
