Abstract/Contents: | Discusses a Scotts® Water Smart Formula advertisement, suggesting that "the Water Smart Formula is not a new fertilizer product; instead the message is that fertilizing is part of the formula for a healthier turf [and]...will result in water savings." Recommends possible fertilizer application tips, including keeping the fertilizer off of paved surfaces, following the directions on the bag, using products designed for lawns, creating an application buffer near bodies of water, and soil testing to check for phosphorous levels. |
