Scotts Turf Builder Lawn Food 15.8 lb — granular fertilizer, fast green-up for up to 5,000 sq ft

Scotts Turf Builder Lawn Food is a granular fertilizer that quickly greens and strengthens lawns—visible color improvement in as little as three days when applied as directed.

This 15.8 lb bag of Scotts Turf Builder supplies balanced nutrients to feed and fortify turf across up to 5,000 square feet at the standard Turf Builder rate, or it can be applied at a higher "Max Greening" setting for a deeper color over smaller areas. The formula is made for routine seasonal feeding: apply, water in, and let the nutrients go to work so lawns recover faster from wear and become more resilient. Use with a Scotts spreader for even application, and follow label directions for safe use around kids and pets once the product is watered in.

How quickly will I see greener grass?

Many users notice a visible green-up within about three days after proper application and watering. The speed depends on soil temperature, moisture and current turf health—warmer, actively growing lawns show results faster.

• Visible greening often in ~3 days when used as directed
• Best results when soil temperatures are consistently between 60°F and 90°F
• Water in after spreading to activate nutrients

How much area does one 15.8 lb bag cover?

At the standard Turf Builder feeding rate, a single 15.8 lb bag covers up to 5,000 sq. ft. If you choose the concentrated 'Max Greening' setting, coverage decreases to about 3,750 sq. ft., so plan accordingly.

• Turf Builder rate coverage: up to 5,000 sq. ft.
• Max Greening rate coverage: approximately 3,750 sq. ft. (restrictions apply)
• Use a Scotts spreader setting for consistent application

Is this product safe for families and pets?

When applied and watered in according to label instructions, Scotts Turf Builder Lawn Food is intended for lawns where children and pets play. The product should be allowed to settle and be watered into the turf before allowing foot or paw traffic.

• Follow label directions for safe use around kids and pets
• Keep off treated areas until product is watered in and settled
• Store bag in a cool, dry place away from children and animals

How often should I feed my lawn with Turf Builder?

Regular feeding builds stronger turf that withstands wear and stress. Feeding about four times a year is recommended to maintain vigor and help the lawn recover from play, pet activity, and seasonal challenges.

• Feed seasonally—roughly four applications per year for best results
• Adjust frequency based on grass type, climate and lawn condition
• Always follow label rates and watering instructions
