ScottsGreen Max Lawn Food, Lawn Fertilizer Plus Iron Supplement for Greener Grass in 3 Days, 5,000 sq. ft., 16.67 lbs.

as stated, it turned my lawn green in 3 to 4 days. Enough to retract a fine from the homeowners association for brown grass. I watered well for three days prior to application just for full disclosure. This spray is only about 4 feet from the bottle and it does get you a little wet unless you have a very tight hose clamp.

This fertilizer worked very well. I used an old Scotts spreader. The yard greened up in just a few days and hung in there for a while. However, the grass will grow faster when it's green and happy, so, I did not get another bag for the second half of Summer when I was hot and lazy and left the lawnmower in the shed.

After a few days of applying Green MAX the lawn turned a darker green and looked great! It rained for a few days after applying so it helped in the process of greening up. Just follow the instructions carefully since applying too much may burn your grass in spots. Highly recommend for a greener lawn.

Ok product. Did not green up as much as as it should. We have had plenty of rain. Maybe large amounts in small area. I went to my farm & got some urea & my lawn makes everyone jealous.

Works as promised. Easy application with the Scott’s broadcaster. Worth the price for a beautiful lawn. I’ve received so many compliments on my lawn after using this product. 5lb bag enough for a small lawn. Love Scott’s brand.

This product is Incredible. I will be buying this again and again. Does a great job on the lawn

I’ve used Scotts Green Max Lawn Food for a full season, and while it has some great benefits, there are a few drawbacks worth noting. Here’s my honest review:Key Facts & Features:✅ Fast-Acting Formula – The product promises visible greening in just 3 days, and I did see improvement within that time frame. The added iron supplement helps boost color, making the grass look healthier.✅ Covers 5,000 sq. ft. – One bag is sufficient for small to mid-sized lawns, making it a good value if you don’t have a large yard.✅ Dual-Purpose Formula – Not only does it feed the grass, but the added iron also helps strengthen roots, leading to more durable turf over time.Drawbacks & Considerations:⚠️ Risk of Lawn Burn – The formula is high in iron, which can stain concrete and hardscapes if not carefully applied. Some users (myself included) also noticed patchy burn spots when applied unevenly or during hot weather.⚠️ Short-Term Results – While the quick greening effect is impressive, the long-term nourishment could be better. After a few weeks, my lawn started losing its deep green color, requiring reapplication.⚠️ Strong Odor – The fertilizer has a noticeable smell that lingers for a day or two after application, which might be unpleasant for some users.Final Verdict:Scotts Green Max Lawn Food is a solid choice if you need a quick green-up for your lawn, but it requires careful application to avoid burn spots and staining. For long-term results, additional treatments may be necessary. I give it 3 out of 5 stars.

This product works very well, but you have to wait 6-weeks after seeding otherwise you will burn your seed.
