About this item

Scotts® Turf Builder® Starter® Food for New Grass is designed to be used when planting seed, growing new grass 70% thicker and 35% quicker (on average vs. unfed lawns). Crafted with the exclusive Scotts® All-in-One Particles® technology, this formula blends the ideal ratio of nutrients into each individual particle. Use anytime you are planting new grass, whether it is starting a new lawn, reseeding an existing one, or installing sod, sprigs, or grass plugs. Scotts® Turf Builder® Starter® Food for New Grass is safe to use on any grass type. It can be applied immediately before or after planting grass. We recommend using a Scotts® spreader to apply this product. For Scotts® broadcast/rotary spreaders, use a setting of 3 ¼. For Scotts® drop spreaders, use a setting of 6. Water daily or as needed to keep the soil surface moist until the seedlings reach at least 2 inches tall. One 42 lb. bag of Scotts® Turf Builder® Starter® Food for New Grass covers 14,000 sq. ft.
