Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action 3-in-1 lawn fertilizer & weed control — 11.31 lb, feeds grass and prevents crabgrass

Scotts Turf Builder Triple Action1 is an all-in-one lawn treatment that feeds grass, kills listed broadleaf weeds, and prevents crabgrass for up to four months.

Designed for homeowners who want to simplify spring lawn care, this 3-in-1 granular formula combines a lawn fertilizer with selective weed control and preemergent activity. It’s formulated for many common turfgrass types and treats up to 4,000 square feet from a single 11.31 lb. bag. Use it with a Scotts broadcast spreader on dew-wet or recently watered turf, then water again after 24 hours to activate the preemergent barrier and help the nutrients reach the soil.

How does Triple Action1 manage weeds while feeding my lawn?

Triple Action1 contains selective herbicide components that target listed broadleaf weeds while delivering nutrients for stronger, greener grass. The granular fertilizer portion supports turf recovery and gradual growth without the need for separate weed-and-feed products.

• Kills listed broadleaf weeds such as dandelion and clover when actively growing
• Feeds grass to improve density and color
• Applies as a single pass for both weed control and fertilization

Will this product stop crabgrass and other grassy weeds?

Yes — the formula includes a preemergent that prevents crabgrass and several other listed grassy weeds from germinating for up to four months. Note it prevents new crabgrass but does not remove crabgrass already established.

• Prevents crabgrass for up to 4 months when applied correctly
• Also helps stop barnyardgrass, foxtail, and annual bluegrass
• Watering in 24 hours after application activates the barrier against germination

How and when should I apply this to get the best results?

Apply in early spring when broadleaf weeds like dandelions are actively growing and the lawn is wet from dew or light irrigation so granules stick to leaves. Use a Scotts spreader for even coverage, then water again after 24 hours to move the product into the soil for preemergent action.

• Apply to a wet lawn with a Scotts broadcast or drop spreader
• Re-water after 24 hours to activate the preemergent component
• Do not allow people or pets back on treated turf until granules settle
