## Description

Nothing is better than lush, green grass. Scotts® Turf Builder® Lawn Food feeds and strengthens your grass to help protect against future problems. This fertilizer also builds strong, deep roots and improves the lawn's ability to absorb water and nutrients (vs. unfed lawn). Scotts® Turf Builder® Lawn Food can be used on any grass type. Apply the product to a wet or dry lawn. We recommend using a Scotts® spreader to apply this product. For Scotts® broadcast/rotary spreaders, use a setting of 3 ½. For Scotts® drop spreaders, use a setting of 6 ½. For Scotts® Wizz®, use a setting of 3 ¾. If fast results are desired, lightly water the product in after application; however, watering is not required. Return unused product to original container, and sweep any product that lands on the driveway, sidewalk, or street back onto your lawn. One 12.5 lb. bag of Scotts® Turf Builder Lawn Food covers 5,000 sq. ft.

Review: Excellent fertilizer! Great value for the money. Effectiveness is wonderful and no unpleasant smell. Good longevity of effectiveness and appearance is noticeable fast.
Review: My lawn has still not recovered from fertilizer burn. I tried to give it a quick go-over with a hand spreader, but I must have dropped some extra in many places.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the N-P-K ratio printed on the 15,000 sq ft bag?**
A: Prominently featured will be the N-P-K ratio, the percentage the product contains by volume of nitrogen (chemical symbol N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K). A 16-16-16 fertilizer, for example, contains 16% nitrogen, 16% phosphorus, and 16% potassium.

**Q: Sprayer questions?  I'm not sure if the folks who reviewed had the same problem. but the sprayer has 3 settings.  Off/water/on.**
A: Defective sprayer.  They had a bunch of these with defective sprayers.  I dumped the contents into an Ortho hose-end sprayer and applied it that way.  I has to cut the top off of the Scott's spray bottle in order to do that.

**Q: Does it stain concrete**
A: No

**Q: Will this product help restore my lawn from some brown spots back to green??**
A: greg, that depends on the cause of the brown spots. Brown spots could be caused by disease, insects, animals or temperatures. We recommend having the cause positively identified before applying anything to your lawn.
