The trouble is that this imported fill was garbage. Basically hard pan. Grass has always done very poorly. Barely surviving. Fertilizer had minimal affect over the last three years. Was at my wits end. Tried this stuff. BAM lush green lawn for the first time. I went with a heavy application two months apart. My lawn is now at 90% perfection. Somehow this stuff helps the roots absorb fertilizer nutrients. I'm on auto ship with this stuff now. Not cheap, but it turned my backyard around, making it a paradise whereas before it was just an ugly eye sore with anemic grass and thriving weeds.
