Product Description:
First off, let's just point out that Double Dark contains 6% iron. There are very few granular fertilizers available that have this much iron in them. We all know that iron is the key to that dark blue-green color, but...Double Dark also contains 16% nitrogen because one thing that so many people forget is that iron won't work if the lawn isn't actively growing.

Think about it: the lawn has to be growing in order to take in nutrients and what element stimulates growth? Answer: Nitrogen The secret to Double Dark is that the nitrogen and the iron are working together. Search around and you will hear people who say, "I was using Ironite but after a while, it just stopped working." That is because there is no nitrogen in that product to keep things growing.

The nitrogen we put in Double Dark Blend isn't over the top - it's just respectable at 16% and, one-quarter of that N is slow release. You will get some green from the N too, but it's not going to smack your lawn in the face and make it flush out a bunch of top growth. The nitrogen is really just there to stimulate intake. 

You can also apply Double Dark in between your regular fertilizer applications if you just feel like you want to sling some fert!

For Warm-season turf will benefit from sustained “spoon-feeding” monthly in summer with this product.

Cool-season turf will benefit from added color without a strong surge from too much N.
