Happy Feet

We have tried several different fertilizers and found Scott's to be superior to the others. The grass is green and thick, for three months as promised.

Great Stuff

Great stuff my yard greened up very well. The only problem I had was that it was attracting all the moisture in the air which made it difficult to drop out of my spreader.

tested on a good lawn... and

Even following the instructions, I didn't really see much improvement in the green landscape. I waited a whole week and nothing to claim as noticeable. My lawn was already green... so it could be that I had a good lawn already... just wanted to see if there was any greener it could get.

Drop spreader settings not accurate

square foot coverage is not accurate for Scotts Drop Spreader settings. With setting at 8, there was 2/3 of the bag left after covering 8,000 sq ft area. Spreader is new, was calibrated per directions on box.

Luke Warm Results.

I don't have any weeds even though my neighbors yard has tons of them. The greening ability is not as good as I would have expected. More lime green than dark green. . .

This product works great I would recommend.

I applied this about two weeks ago after a very dry spell hit the region. My lawn was very dried out and brown. I applied and waited for a green up. After about three to four days my lawn started to show life. Then after a good rain finally came my deep green lawn came back.

This product has worked fine for me,

I have used Green Max for 10yrs and love it. I have read all of the reviews and can with all certainly say I have not had any problems. And will boldly say READ the instruction it tells you to sweep your sidewalk. I live in North Carolina we don't have bad winters but some of the summers are pretty bad and my lawn always concerns me in the summer. I am in my early 70s and a high water bill hurts but with proper watering I can have a beautiful lawn. In my very humble area, I do have a lawn that all that passes will comment on favorably. I am not telling anyone what or how to use but for me I have used Scotts Green Max as much as every 4wks and will use it at least every 6wks common sense tells you lawns need water, no rain you water. One person say's it didn't work in three days after re seeding it takes 7-11 days for most seeds to germinate and Green Max is not made for seeding Scotts Starter is new grass needs to be at 2 1/2" tall But read the bag,it tells you all you need to know. One other it don't have a pre-emergent in it. Use a feed and weed instead of in late spring and you will be happy.

Be the envy of the neighbors with Scotts Green Max

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First I want to say always read the directions this product will temporarily stain concrete side walks, driveways, I have used this product Scotts Green Max now for 10yrs. and there is no substitute. Depending on your climate and need for your lawn you can use this to achieve the results you want. As for ME I have used this Green Max as much as once every 30 days and this is not recommended but for my need and my lawn at that time it worked very well. And NOTE high use of nitrogen can cause problems with some flowering trees like Dogwoods. This product has the perfect amount of IRON that will turn your lawn dark green in a short time ⌚. I have used other named brans and they either don't last or wont green as deep green as Scotts. My lawn stays green all year long and people ask me for advice on what they can do. I live in the western part of North Carolina It might rain every week or every day or not at all for a month learn to check your soil, water if need to, pray for rain and enjoy the envy of you neighbors.
