I would use this product when I’m receding new grass.
Not good
Did not germinate
Gets the seed sprouting fast!
Really got the seed sprouting nicely. Love Scotts.
Grows Grass
I does what it is supposed to do.
In Store Aged Special
Caught this product on sale--it was pretty old and there were a lot of lumps. I was able to simply crush the lumps and administered it on the lawn. Presumably it has not aged out. Will know more later, but if it lasts two more years, I have all the starter fertilizer I will need.
