That’s where Scotts Turf Builder WinterGuard Fall Lawn Food comes in. This is the meal your lawn needs. It’s formulated to help your grass recover from summer damage and, most importantly, to build strong, deep roots before winter. Think of it as a final power-up before a long nap. Best of all, you can apply it with confidence because it’s guaranteed not to burn your lawn (when used as directed). Come spring, you'll be rewarded with a better lawn—one that's thicker and greens up faster. It’s the simple step that makes a huge difference.

While you don't have to water this product in, a light watering after you apply will help the nutrients get to work even faster.

• Feed on a Schedule: For a truly great-looking lawn, we recommend feeding it four times a year—early spring, late spring, summer, and of course, fall.
• Leave the Clippings: When you mow, leave the grass clippings on the lawn. They'll break down and return valuable nutrients to the soil.

• You're Good to Go: Your family and pets can get back to enjoying the lawn right after you've applied the product.
• Wash Up: It's always a good idea to wash your hands with soap and water after you're done.

Think of it as a final meal before a long winter's nap. A fall feeding helps your lawn recover from summer, store up energy for the winter, and build strong roots. This leads to a lawn that greens up faster and is thicker and healthier next spring.

It means you can have confidence when you're feeding your lawn. As long as you follow the directions for application, this product is guaranteed not to burn your grass, so you'll get a beautiful green-up without any worries.
