Great stuff
on June 10, 2020

I use this product every 6 to 8 weeks on my front, side and back lawn over my midnight blue bluegrass lawn and my lawn looks almost blackish. Very deep deep darkest green I have ever seen. A very thick lush weed free lawn. This does make your grass fast and lush and can be really thick when you mow. And definitely helps crowd any weeds. But that's the feeding you are giving it.

Follow Up Review-wow!!!

So I wrote a review earlier and gave it 3 stars. I am doing a follow up with results. AMAZING is all I have to say. It did take my front yard a little longer than the other areas but it too has perked up nicely. This is my 1st year doing my own lawn maintenance and this was a wonderful product to start the journey. As you can see a few bare spots but tackling that today! I would definitely suggest buying the MaxGreen product. I know I will purchase again.

Lawn Beautifier!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This lawn food finally helped my lawn live up to its true potential. All the bare patches have finally filled in. The lawn became so much greener and thicker after application. It only takes three days to see a difference. What more can you ask for?

Works great on the lawn

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a free product to test. The green max lawn food was just what my lawn needed to get growing and green up after a long winter. Not sure if all the rain we had in Louisiana helped as well, but that coupled with the lawn food made my lawn green up & grow.

Nice green lawn

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lawn greened up nicely and showed resilience against foot traffic from both dogs and children. Definitely a healthier lawn overall than in years past. Applied with a walk-behind spreader made the process fast and easy.

Bright Green Grass

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After using this on my lawn, it took a few days, but I noticed a major difference. My lawn was much more vibrant. It was very easy to spread across the lawn and water as well. We had a dry period and our lawn was suffering prior to use of this product.

Use with caution

I read all the reviews and decided to use the product. I carefully applied the product with a rotary spreader then immediately blew off walks and drive with a gas powered blower twice. I was absolutely sure I got it all off the concrete.
Problem: you cannot see the particles remaining on the concrete and when they get wet they will stain.
Solution: I used Iron Out (1 cup to 1 gal. of water). Just douse the area with the solution and the stain will go disappear. I did this procedure the following day after a rain.
My grass did turn dark green but not worth all the trouble.
Scotts needs to improve this product so the staining will not occur.

Pros: Effective
Cons: Messy, Problem with label, Difficult to use, no remedy for the staining on the label
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
