Green MAX!!!
on September 19, 2021

from Spring, TX
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The name of this product lives up to it. The deep green that was created in my lawn was simply awesome. Each time I apply any Scotts product, I have no doubt it will perform. But this product over performed in my opinion.

This is the first year I’m using this product. Check back in the spring and I will have a review. If it’s like your other products, I’m sure it is, and I’m sure my review will be a positive one.

I haven't had the opportunity to use this product yet because I'm waiting the required time after using Scott's 3 in 1. However, I have used this lawn food before on my lawn in Texas and it worked just as it stated it would do my lawn turned a deep green in 3 days, I can't wait to apply it to my lawn in South Carolina.

Green lawn - check

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product really made my lawn green. I'm not sure if it really made it more healthy or not, but it was definitely much greener than my neighbor's lawn which is well-cared for, too. If you are looking for green, give this a try. I used it as an extra treatment to my normal regimen.

This greens my lawn up like no other! Grass thrives beautifully where I apply this product and last for a long time! Worth the money when you get complimented from all the neighbors!

Didn't perform
on June 25, 2024
Posted by: Honeydipp
Unfortunately, this is the first time this product didn't perform well. It's been 2 wks now with plenty of rain and watering and still the grass is struggling to turn green. I have done the same treatments for 3-5 yrs and we always have lush green grass.
Response from ScottsBy Customer Care, June 26, 2024
We're sorry to read about your disappointment with Scotts Green Max Lawn Food and appreciate your feedback.
The most common reason a lawn does not respond to fertilizer is soil pH Soil pH must be between 5.5-7.5 for fertilizer to be absorbed by the grass. We suggest performing a soil pH test. Grass will not respond during periods of dormancy. If the lawn isn't receiving at least 1 inch of water per week then the lawn will not green up as fast. When mowing do not remove more than 1/3 of the grass blade at a time. A stressed lawn will not green up with the application of a fertilizer.
We want you to be confident in our products. For this reason, we offer a product guarantee to our consumers. At your earliest convenience, please reach out to us at 888-270-3714 if we can further assist.

After alternating back and forth between generic and Scott's fertilizers over the years, looking for a quality fertilizer at a reasonable price, I happened upon Scott's Green Max. I bought a few bags and put them in the garage for use at a later date. Recently used them for the first time, and what a noticeable difference it made.
My lawn is the best it's been in years. As the package states, make sure you sweep the concrete surfaces to avoid the stains from the iron particles. I don't think you 'll be disappointed. Great product!

Pros: Value, Quality, Easy to Use, Good Directions, Effective
Cons: requires clean up off concrete
I would recommend this to a friend!
