## Overview

Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action is a 3-in-1 granular formula that kills existing broadleaf weeds, prevents crabgrass and other grassy weeds for up to 4 months, and feeds your lawn to promote thick, green growth. Covering 4,000 sq. ft., it’s designed for multiple grass types and applied easily with a spreader on a wet lawn, followed by watering to activate. Ideal for professionals and lawn enthusiasts seeking a low-effort, high-impact lawn care solution.

## Description

Scotts® Turf Builder® Triple Action1 provides three benefits in one bag. This 3-in-1 formula kills and prevents weeds, all while feeding and strengthening your lawn. It kills broadleaf weeds, including dandelions and clover, and prevents crabgrass for up to 4 months. It also prevents other listed grassy weeds, including barnyardgrass, fall panicum, foxtail, and annual bluegrass. Scotts® Turf Builder® Triple Action1 can be applied to Kentucky Bluegrass, Perennial Ryegrass, Tall Fescue, Fine Fescue, Bermudagrass, Bahiagrass, Centipedegrass, and Zoysiagrass. Apply with a Scotts® spreader when dandelions are actively growing. Make sure the grass is wet from dew or watering before applying to help the particles adhere to weed leaves. After 24 hours, water the lawn to wash particles into the soil to prevent germination of crabgrass and other listed grassy weeds. Do not allow people and pets to re-enter the treated area until dusts have settled. An 11.31 lb. bag treats 4,000 sq. ft.

Review: The Lawn’s Revenge: Scotts Turf Builder Takes Weeds to School - Alright, folks, buckle up, because your lawn’s about to get a makeover worthy of a high-end spa day...and I’m not talking about the kind where you sit in a bathrobe while someone massages your ego. This is for your grass. Yeah, you heard me right. If your lawn’s looking like it hasn’t seen sunshine since the ’80s, it’s time to give it a dose of Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action. This magical bag of wonder promises to do it all: kill weeds, prevent new ones from coming back like bad exes, and fertilize your lawn like it’s on a mission to become the next green celebrity in the neighborhood. It’s like your lawn’s personal trainer, but instead of burpees, it’s slaying dandelions and crabgrass like a pro. Now, I know what you’re thinking: “Does it really work?” Oh, it works. You’ll see those weeds cower in fear, retreating faster than a cat when you try to give it a bath. Your lawn will look like the Instagram version of itself, green, lush, and possibly even trending on TikTok. PROS: • Triple threat: kills weeds, prevents new ones, and fertilizes like it’s auditioning for The Bachelor. • Covers 4,000 sq. ft. of your lawn—basically, it’ll make your neighbors wonder what kind of wizardry you’re using. • Easy to apply—no special skills required, just sprinkle it and let it work its magic. • You won’t need to go full Sherlock Holmes on your lawn to see the results. Within weeks, you’ll be doing a happy dance in your backyard (I mean, you probably already are, but this is going to make it better). CONS: • If you have a weed problem that’s basically a garden full of exotic plants, this might not be a one-size-fits-all solution. • It can’t actually help you with the existential dread you feel when you look at your lawn, but it’ll sure make it look better while you work through that. In conclusion, if you want a lawn that’s not only beautiful but also as aggressive against weeds as a caffeinated squirrel on a mission, then Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action I is the product you never knew you needed. Your yard will look like it’s ready to host a garden party, and you’ll be sipping iced tea while everyone asks you what your secret is.
Review: A Game-Changer for My Lawn!” - I’ve been using Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action for the past season, and I’m absolutely thrilled with the results. Let me break down why this product deserves all five stars: Weed Control: This stuff means business! Not only did it tackle the pesky dandelions and clover, but it also took care of those sneaky crabgrass invaders. My lawn looks pristine, and I haven’t seen a weed in weeks. Lush Green Growth: The grass responded like it was on steroids (in a good way, of course). The lush green color and thick growth are the envy of my neighbors. I’ve even caught them peeking over the fence, wondering what my secret is! Feeds and Strengthens: Scotts Triple Action isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s like a spa day for your lawn. The slow-release nitrogen ensures consistent feeding, promoting robust root development. My grass feels stronger and more resilient. Easy Application: The granules are user-friendly—no complicated mixing or spraying. I just spread it evenly with my trusty broadcast spreader, watered it in, and let the magic happen. Time-Saver: The fact that it combines weed control, feeding, and protection against bugs in one application is a game-changer. I’ve reclaimed precious weekends that used to be spent battling weeds and pests. Bonus: My dog loves rolling around on the fresh grass, and I’ve noticed fewer fleas and ticks. It’s a win-win! In summary, Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action is like a superhero for your lawn. If you want a picture-perfect yard without the hassle, this is the secret sauce. Trust me—you won’t be disappointed!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: is this safe for dogs to walk on after applying?**
A: Pets and children should be removed from the area prior to an application of Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action. They may return to the treated area once the product has been watered in and allowed to dry. If you're unsure of the drying time, wait 24 hours. Once the area has dried, additional rain or water will not dislodge the product or cause it to reactivate.

**Q: How can Scott's triple action work on crabgrass and broadleat weeds at the same time? You can't kill both at the same time.**
A: It prevents crabgrass from germination before it starts growing

**Q: Why can I not get this shipped to Oklahoma?**
A: Think about 1995. Da.

**Q: Would this kill crab grass and weeds now?**
A: Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action will not kill actively growing crabgrass but will kill actively growing broadleaf weeds so as long as it's applied in late spring or early fall when daytime highs are between 60-80 degrees.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ So far, so good
*by R***N on April 14, 2025*

Applied this lawn fertilizer to a yard emerging from winter dormancy and I can already tell it's giving the lawn a boost. It will be a couple months before I can rate its effect on crabgrass. I had some crabgrass spots last year, so this will be a good test. Also hoping there will be a noticeable difference in the amount of spring dandelions. So basically is the product truly "triple action"? Time will tell. Removed one star due to price -- even though I got this at a 40% discount. The bag was just enough to for one treatment, so it's not a bad deal, just an OK one. but if the Triple Action claim holds true, I'll come back with an update, including that 5th review star.
