Question:	I’m still waiting on my order that was supposed to be here We’d
Answer:	It's seasonal use and will state on the back of the bag directions for use.
Question:	Can you use this in Florida
Answer:	You can use a Scotts Drop Spreaders available thru amazon, that is what most folks do. I hand throw mine, but I have had years of experience and do it well. I'd say, for you, buy a spreader.
Question:	is this product good for St Augustine grass for dallas tx, in month of May
Answer:	Well, I'm not sure. I had not noticed it. I am a firm believer in Scotts products . I have seen the transformation of my yard from weed forest when we bought our home to luxury lawn. So I use them every year. I do go to the manufacturer site each year to assure I am using the right products at the right time. They may provide the information you want. I then go to Amazon to buy the product.
Question:	What is the N-P-K on this product
Answer:	Others are wrong.I use this every two months.my scotts mini broadcast at 2.5 setting.my yard is thick and lush.I also have St Augustine grass.st Augustine likes water but not sitting in it for long periods.it also likes fertilizer.I found the starter applied in the spring and the southern after that the rest of the year works fantastic.Do not use bonus s fertilizer.neighbors have had terrible results with that.As Efraim said do not go by recommend settings.go by half recommend setting.I found 2.5 best on broadcast scotts spreader.also use a liquid weed killer for Augustine grass and only treat problem areas.the grass will grow in thick and choke out future weeds.also at least once a year use a fungicide.scotts disease ex works great.all my neighbors have brown spots i do not.remember here in houston we have very sandy soil so fertilizers dissipate into soil quickly.other areas may require less fertilizing intervals as soil retention may be better.

Question:	How is it to be applied
Answer:	Maryland passes law to reduce pollution from lawn fertilizer.
Question:	Why does scotts turfbuildedr seem to hide the fertilizer grade (%n, p2o5 and k2o) on the turfbuilder products? the first thing one needs to know
Answer:	I use this product by pouring into a 1 gal jug with about a half gallon of water. I shake it every few minutes to ensure the product fully dissolves. At this time I also water the gas for about 15 minutes. I then add the contents to my 4 gal sprayer with surfactant and more water. Spray using your normal pace to empty the contents on your measured sqft. After emptying, I wait 15 minutes and then water the lawn for 15 minutes.
Question:	Can this apply on texas area sod augustine
Answer:	The Miracle Gro Lawn food is in granules and no I don't think a spreader is a good idea because the pouches it comes in isn't very much. You could spread it with your hands though, say in a 20x20ft space and then saturate with water to dissolve the granules. I use Miracle Gro plant food that way.

User questions & answers

Question:	Whats the npk for summer guard
Answer:	The NPK for Scotts Turf Builder Summerguard is 20-0-8.
Question:	I just used the Summerguard. But I also have a huge problem with clover. How soon can I apply the Weed & Feed after using the summerguard
Answer:	I also applied this and have a clover issue... Scott’s recommends 4-6 weeks in between feedings. 30 days would be the shortest time with a minor risk of burning your lawn.
Question:	Does it affect pets in the yard? I've got 2 dogs and 2 cats in the yard daily! One of each is sensitve to flea and tick treatments
Answer:	I have two cats too. As far as I know insect killers are not harmful for pets. They kill spineless creatures, so they don't affect creatures with spine, including squirrels. As a precaution, it might be safer to keep the pets inside for a moment after applying this fertilizer.
Question:	What insects does it prevent
Answer:	From the scotts website:ants, armyworms, billbugs, chiggers, chinch bugs, crickets, fleas, grasshoppers, mole crickets, mealy bugs, sod webworms (lawn moth larvae), spiders, ticks, weevils.

Question:	Can I use for begonias that are in and outside
Answer:	Plants need a lot of water when using this product to prevent root burn and damage (Found out the hard way.) I personally wouldn't use it on potted plants indoors.
