Nigel knows this is the most important time to be feeding your lawn as the warmer weather begins to roll in, and he’s prepared.

• Scotts Lawn Builder Extreme Green has all the summer nutrients your lawn needs. It contains Iron and Magnesium that feeds and greens your lawn while also keeping it healthy.
• Scotts Lawn Builders unique formula prevents surge growth by feeding your lawn over a 3 month period whilst also developing a deeper root system and thicker lawn. Perfect for if you have kids or animals that love to flatten the grass day after day.
• Traditional lawn foods release or 'dump' most of their nutrients within a couple of weeks of application, causing a rapid surge in growth that quickly drops off. Scotts Lawn Builder uses patented time-release technology to ensure nutrients are released slowly and continuously over a three month period.
• Extreme Green has less than 0.5% phosphorus, which means it can be safely used anywhere in Australia without posing any risk to ground or surface water. The recommended application rate is just a low 16 grams per m2, not the kilograms often associated with regular lawn foods.
• Use a Scotts Spreader when applying Lawn Builder to ensure even distribution and prevent over application. If you have a smaller lawn, use the Scotts Handy Spreader or for larger lawns, try the Scotts EasyGreen Rotary Spreader.
