Scotts Turf Builder WinterGuard Fall Lawn Fertilizer for All Grass Types, 5,000 sq. ft., 12.5 lbs.

I can't say enough good things about Scotts Turf Builder WinterGuard Fall Lawn Fertilizer. After using it for the first time last fall, my lawn came back in the spring looking healthier and greener than ever before. This stuff really works to nourish the grass roots and prepare them for the harsh winter months. It was easy to spread and the coverage area was perfect for my yard size. My lawn looks incredibly thick and vibrant, and I'm convinced this is the reason. If you want a beautiful lawn next spring, this is the fertilizer you need to put down in the fall.

Great product use it prior to onset of winter season.

Seemed to work pretty good. It was extremely easy to spread with a Scott’s spreader.

I use this every year and seem to get good results.

I'm in NC and fescue lawns go through much stress in July, August is due to excessive heat and the drying of the root system. Although I will fertilize in the spring and then again in the fall is a good practice, winterize your fescue before the hard freeze sets in. Which for us in NC is around the end of November. This is so important, that if you only fertilize your lawn once this year, make sure you do it in November and don;t forget to water it. I have followed this practice and for the last 5 years my fescue has made through the summer like a champ. I will usually purchase whatever is the least expensive, as the thing that I compare are the levels. Winter fertilizer will have 28% Nitrogen, 6% potash, 3% sulfur so anything with those level will be fine. This product coverage is 12,000 square feet, which was enough for me, and the current price is fantastic. Your lawn will thank you, and you'll love the look of it in the spring.

I found out about this product after the fact. Directions say to be applied in the fall, but I didn't learn about it until talking with my neighbor during the winter. Her grass was green while mine wasn't. I bought this in January and applied it. It still worked great! Within a short time, my lawn was greening up. FYI... I live in Southern Washington State. I most definitely would purchase this again!

Scott winter guard lawn care products are good at doing what they say they do but they are very expensive

I am ambivalent about giving this anything more than a 3-star rating because ever since I began using this product a few years ago, I have noticed more and more dandelion growth in ONLY the areas I have used it.
