Greener in 3 days!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Yes, this product works as advertised. My lawn was noticeably greener after just first day and a beautiful deep green after 5 days!

The Greenest Grass You Will Ever Have!!!

This product is fantastic. The extra iron gives you an extremely dark green color that will leave your neighbors wondering what they are doing wrong. This product will not disappoint. The attached picture is worth 1,000 words!!!

Fantastic

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Used the product last year and my lawn exploded with green very quickly. Just bought 2 more bags and will apply next week.

Brand new concrete is stained because of this product

I can not believe you put this product out there without a huge warning on the front of the bag stating it will stain your concrete. Very disappointed and I will expect a representative from Scott's to contact me regarding my stained concrete.

nice and green!

i have a brushed small aggregate driveway, so staining wasn't an issue. It worked great for me. i used the edgeguard too. I'd say it was a win for me. helped repair my junk lawn.

Very pleased

This is the second time I have used this product and I am very pleased. My yard looks great. I applied the fertlizer to a dry lawn and then used my leaf blower to blow off my driveway and sidewalks and have had no problem with iron stains.

Spots your yard

I really wasn't expecting this to happen. After the first bag, I will never use again. First applied on 9-07-2015, after 21 days I have brown/dead spots throughout my yard.

did green up but I question the price

This product did a good job of greening up the yard. Did not see much of a difference compared to other products I've used in the past. Unless the price goes down I will go in a different direction in the future.

Overall, a good product to use

I was happy with this fertilizer but it did not make my grass turn as green as I had hoped or read from the other reviews. Still, not a bad product to use.
