I have used it on a couple of lawns instead of 5-10-31 we normally use down here in nc for summer apps. I used it on some lawns that needed a little more color,(used at lower rate, I think 15,000 per bag) & got good results, the grass is definatly greener, & growing slightly more.

I use it and have had great results as posted earlier. The "bio" means it's made from biodegradable products, I put it at half rate and spoon feed the lawn with it, very good so far.

"Biosolids" i.e. organic fillers like Milorganite sewer sludge or composted chicken sh1t used as fillers in the fertilizer.
