Default Scotts Weed Control Fertilizer Killed Our Lawn!! Brooklyn1....

We used 10,000 square feet of fertilizer, on a 2,500 square foot lawn,
so this shows that our 10 to 12 year old drop spreader malfunctioned,
and it put down way too much fertilizer.


We will follow your advice, and give the lawn plenty of water, and hope
that the roots can regenerate, and HOPEFULLY some Green grass will start
to grow back!?


Following Shelly's advice? Shelly who normally can't find his butt with
both hands? You must be a kindred spirit. The helpless following the
blind.

Let's also hope that your nitrites and phosphates don't find their way
into city wells, which will aid in creating blue babies, or into
waterways that create dead zones in the sea. The chemferts will pass
with time, so why don't you just suck it up, and keep the problem where
where you made it, instead of flushing it off to others to deal with?
Oh, that's right,
YOU want a green lawn.

Why don't you just spay paint it until next Spring?
