I have been dumpimg iron in both powder iron chilide and water souble iron with a concentration of 7% 30ml/gallon with a hose end sprinkler for the past two weeks every 2-3 days and my lawn doesn't seem to be getting darker, my concrete walkways are stained with iron, but the lawn doesn't seems to be getting greener, any ideas why this is so ?

turf will only uptake so much iron at 1 app so you either have reached that point at this time, you are doing something wrong or your ph is off.
a little N with the iron helps the uptake
same goes with some herbicides alittle N and roundup works better.
remember a little sugar makes the coffee taste better
