Green Machine!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I put this down on my lawn in early February before weed and feed. My lawn went from dormant and dreary to bright green in days. Love this product and the whole line of Scott's fertilizers. I will purchase this product multiple times per year for sure!

Things looking GREENER on our side of the street

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Took some time for us to get to put down with our weather conditions lately. but finally applied and it looks like we are beginning to see positive results!! Seems to be bringing the grass to more lively nature. More time will hopefully continue to do even better.

No improvements
on August 15, 2022

from Laredo, TX
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Unfortunately we have been in a very dry season with some water restrictions. Our lawn is extremely dry & cracked. Rain was expected in our area a couple days ago so we opted to spread the lawn food but it only drizzled on & off for a few mins. We did not see any improvements in the lawn probably due to lack of water. We just had over 2 inches of rain but with some flooding. I am not certain if the flooding will negatively affect it but for now I can only rate at 1 star. I will update if possible in a few weeks.

I applied the product to my lawn, ensuring I watered it afterward. Additionally, we had a steady shower lasting an hour, followed by four consecutive days of rain. Despite this, the grass remains unchanged in color, even with the seeds I planted over it. Given my experience in lawn care since 1978, I expected to see a noticeable difference, but that hasn’t been the case.

Terrible Product!!!
on June 22, 2025
Posted by: TomNH
I bought this product 3 weeks ago. I followed application instructions and watered daily. Results were terrible. My lawn didn't improve at all. Don't waste your money on this product. It is useless! Will never again buy any Scott lawn care products.

This product is the only one on the market that combinesthe advantages of balanced N,P,K with high Iron
on September 27, 2012

from Meridian, ID, USA
Gender:Male
Expertise:Intermediate
I live in an area with high calcium in the soil. The calcium in turn makes soil iron unavailable to the grass and causes it to be yellow in many areas. The 5.75 % iron in this product counteracts this soil problem and brings the grass back to a healthy green.
Pros: Value, Quality, Good Directions, Effective, high iron
I would recommend this to a friend!
