This product has great results

I've recently moved into a new home and the yard was new sod. It had a lot of weeds, and it was struggling, as it was early July when we moved in. It was burnt in a lot of places, and the weeds were bad. First I used Scotts Turf Control with Weed and Feed. Watered it very heavily...$267 water bill the first month!!
Then I followed up, after 2 months, with Scotts Green Max. There are new homes all around me and the neighbors are asking how my lawn looks so good in such a short amount of time. It greened up, and now is weed free, and very healthy. Water bill this last month was $13!!!! I use ONLY Scott's products on my yard. I will not use anything else.
Pros: Value, Quality, Easy to Use, Good Directions, Effective
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have been using this product for a couple of years and have the greenest lawn in the neighborhood. During weed growing season, I mix half Scotts S and Green Max and spread it over the lawn at least 2x a year. I recommend this product to all. It may be a couple of $ more, but your lawn will love you for it.
Pros: Effective
Cons: non

The green up I had in a few days I was inpressed. Just make sure U sweep up any left on your sidewalk or driveway. the Iron will stain.
Pros: Value, Quality, Easy to Use, Good Directions, Effective, the color

Works well and long lasting

I didn't have to be too careful since I don't have any concrete adjacent to my lawn but someone I know didn't, and got scattered particles on the concrete leaving faint orange colored rust stains. He was warned. My lawn went dark green in a week and really dark in two weeks. It was almost embarrassing. I had the darkest green lawn on the block. It lasts a long time, too even if you use other products between applications. Definitely worth the money. The grass thickened and now I skip using weed killer.
Pros: Easy to Use, Effective, Good Directions, Value, Quality
Cons: leaves stains on concrete
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not a typical Scotts product

Went to apply Green Max several weeks ago. AFter filling the spreader and doing the front lawn I noticed that no very little fertilizer was being applied. It looks like Green Max absorbed moisture as soon as exposed to air and ended up clogging the spreader. I do not recommend this product!!!! Ended up disposing the remainder of Green Max.
Cons: Messy, Didn't work as expected, Difficult to use, absorbs moisture
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
