Default Brown Lawn

Has anyone in TV used Scotts Liquid Turf Builder 29-2-3? Comes in a bottle that attaches to garden hose. And yes the irrigation system works. It's suppose to "Green Up" your yard.

Which lawn do you have? I have Zoysia. We just put Scotts Weed and Feed Turf Builder, the granular type. Put it on alittle heavy and lawn went from brown to deep green and thick and growing real fast. Really good. Not sure of he lawn you have.

Gmoney - I know it's not Zoysia and it's sure not KY Fescue. I'm not sure what it is other than brown. LOL Thanks for your input but Im concentrating on a liquid, attach to the hose, point & spray fix at this time.

Ditto.... I use the Scott's weed and feed.... they have seasonal mixes.... i put a bag on every 3 mos. I cut my lawn with a reel type not motorized mower. Water Sun / Thur in summer when allowed. Minimal cost and one of the greenest yards in Duval.

That stuff works great. last year I paid for the Green Up Service from Masssey and will not do that again. Do it myself. with much better results..

I've used for years on my "other house up north" lawn and plan to use it in TV.
It's not quite as good as the granular (IMHO) but it's fast and cheap and works decent.

Default SCOTTS WEB SITE SAYS.... I like the last line.

From Scotts for ZIP 32162

"Lawns need at least 1 inch of water a week. If this is not received, the lawn will turn a bluish tint, and then brown. Footprints may be seen in the grass. Most "dead" lawns will fully recover when water again becomes available."
