Will it assist new grass seed growth if i mix this turf builder lawn food in with the seed, then spread mixture?

Till the ground. Spread fertilizer. Rake dirt. Spread seed. Rake dirt again. Water every day until the grass is established. If spreading dirt: put down fertilizer, spread dirt, spread seed. Rake dirt. Water every day until grass is established.

can i fertilize new sod in hot weather with this?

Yes, but I water it down good immediately after putting down the fertilizer. It will burn the grass if you don't water it good and immediately. I put mine down about 7:00 p.m. so the water doesn't evaporate so fast.

My husband did not prepare soil correctly when he was patching 2 holes so the grass seed we planted is not doing well. Will this help?

I recommend getting a husband that knows what the heck he is doing...that will help!

Will this tend to stimulate weed growth initially too? Our weeds seem worse. No rototilling was done before seeding with our grass seed.

No, Scotts Turf Builder won't cause weeds. If you didn't do any rototilling first, that is your problem. I don't have weeds in mine because of rototilling first, and then putting down sod. The grass is really coming on now.
