Lawn Builder with Wetting Agent helps water and nutrients to penetrate well into the soil and reduce water run-off. This promotes deeper root growth so that less watering is needed and promotes drought tolerant lawns.

### WHEN DO I FEED MY LAWN?
Apply anytime of year. For best results feed three times per year.

*   ONE ANNUAL FEEDING IN EARLY SPRING
*   SECOND ANNUAL FEEDING IN EARLY SUMMER
*   THIRD ANNUAL FEEDING IN AUTUMN

### HOW MUCH WILL I NEED?
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.

*   1/4 of a tennis court equals approx 65m²
*   1/2 of a tennis court equals approx 130m²
*   1 whole tennis court equals approx 260m²

You will need to apply **16g/m²** of your lawn.

### HOW DO I APPLY IT?

**DRY METHOD**
During water restriction periods, apply to lawn without watering in. Scotts Lawn Builder is safe on lawn until next rain or watering, when damp and correctly applied, the ingredients are guaranteed to green the lawn within one week of obtaining moisture.

**FAST METHOD**
Greener in 2 days with watering. For best results apply to moist lawns, and 12 hours then water in thoroughly.

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

**APPLYING BY SCOTTS SPREADERS**
