Very impressive!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Scott's Turf Builder Starter Food for new grass is a very good fertilizer! The instructions in the back of the bag are amazing, explain everything with a lot of details and give very well for instructions on how to apply on Your areas. I personally used on my front yard because I have some areas that we're missing a little bit of grass, and after applying, I really did see a very good difference in the grass quality in the amount that started growing. After you apply it, the grass absorbes it very quickly, so it's Not Something That will be visible for a long time, so I personally think that this product is great and anybody that has grass that is not looking It's the best would benefit from using it! I've tried others in the best, and haven't been as successful as this one in revitalizing the quality of the grass, so I'm really impressed with the quality and will continue to purchase!!

Lawn looks amazing!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This stuff is amazing, just after couple of weeks, my grass is looking fabulous, with a beautiful color. My lawn has never looked so good and so healthy. I just made sure to water every day and that's all it took. I'm so glad I got it. Would definitely recommend it.
