This year I applied Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action, which feeds the lawn, provides weed control, and stops crabgrass. Last year around this time I applied Scotts Turf Builder Weed and Feed, which feeds the lawn, and provides weed control.
We’re seeing a much bigger difference with our lawn this year thanks to Scotts Triple Action. I applied the fertilizer using the Scotts Turf Builder with EdgeGaurd DLX broadcast spreader. This spreader offers wide dispersal for good coverage and overlap. This spreader allows you to block the edge from being fertilized using EdgeGaurd. I had the setting at the recommended 3.5 but I found that it was dispersing way too quickly so I dialed it back to around 2.5 and this worked much better.
My Thoughts on Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action
You can see at the end of the video our lawn is looking pretty good. So far I’m satisfied with the product. Now since the filming of this video on March 23, 2023 and the date of this upload on April 21, 2023 we can see areas where weeds are appearing. I’m going to apply another round to control the weeds.
Based on reviews that I read I will also need to apply Scotts fertilizer with Halts to help to control crabgrass. Many reviewers stated that the Triple Action fertilizer only lasts for so long to control crabgrass.
