Highlighted Reviews

— Cindy

"It has helped my back yard a lot. Lawn is nice and thick. I love it because it is all natural and will not harm my dog's. Applied the fertilizer prior to getting rain, and it took only a week to green up and show new growth. Even the neighbors noticed the improvement. Plan to apply every few months ..."

— Martha

"I was not informed about spreading guidelines, and the fertilizer does not kill many weeds."

Bottom Line

While it greens the lawn effectively, inconsistent weed control and unclear instructions make it a product to consider carefully. Repeated application may be necessary, but overall, it offers a good balance of natural nutrients for lawn health, though buyer beware of the inconsistencies, especially if you are also looking to combat weeds.
