Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Scott's is more expensive than others but halts never lets me down. Very impressed with the results so far. My lawn looks better 2 weeks after using this, than it did after a full year & $900 later with trugreen.

Follow directions, apply evenly, and water in. Still will get a couple of * around the edges by august. Always check periodically your ph.

This pre-emergent stops crabgrass from sprouting if applied early enough. The seedlings get on the deck. It's good as a fertilizer but not so much as a preemergent.



Cons

Clumps clog the spreader, getting covered/inhaling in orange fertilizer dust, and a 20% cost increase from last year. Opening the bag revealed wet fertilizer.

Quality


Quality easy to use i only use scotts


Scotts has always been a quality product


It greened up our lawn in just a few days and killed the broad leaf weeds that were growing


Many of the pallets they have on display right now are from last year which makes bags hard and clumpy

Price


Wish it was a little larger for the same price but great quality


I get alot of neighbor weeds here in northern ohio and this works every time good price this time plus did not have to lug it home


Now you get 40lbs and it costs you almost 3 times more


Only complaint is that the price has increased a lot

Shipping


I could order exactly the amount i needed it was delivered i applied and voila


Received a new bag in order mid march and pleased with the product

Packaging/appearance


I was pleasantly surprised that each bag of fertilizer was individually boxed and well protected


The package shows exactly the setting needed


Box that it came in was pretty damaged but bags intact

Competitiveness


Ive used generic preemergents in the past but nothing compares to how well 34all34 scotts products work


Still better than any alternative out there

    I had excellent results with the fertilizer aspect of this product but it did not handle the weeds as much as i hoped


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I feel like i need to put down another round of weed control


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Apply before crabgrass germinatesbefore soil temps get to 55 and above otherwise you’re applying just expensive fertilizer


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Once applied do not rake or disturb soil


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This barrier stops annual weeds like crabgrass from germinating


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    If you do make sure you rake the soil to break up the barrier so the grass seed can germinate


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    There were clumps of fertilizer which clogged my spreader


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Apply another fertilizer 6 weeks later
