Scotts Lawn Builder is unlike traditional fertilisers as you use less to feed more. To determine the size of your lawn in m², multiply the length by the width in metres.

  • ½ of a tennis court equals approx 65m²
  • ¾ of a tennis court equals approx 130m²
  • 1 whole tennis court equals approx 260m² You will need to apply 14g/m² of your lawn.

How Do I Apply It?

DRY METHOD FAST METHOD
During water restriction periods, apply to lawn without watering in. Scotts Lawn Builder is safe on lawn until next rain or watering, when evenly and correctly applied with a spreader. Guaranteed to green the lawn within one week of obtaining moisture. Greener in 2 days with watering. For fast results apply to moist foliage, wait 24 hours then water in thoroughly.

For best results use a Scotts Spreader, however if applying by hand ensure even distribution.

Applying by Scotts Spreaders
