Product Description:
Double Dark contains 6% iron. There are very few granular fertilizers available that have this much iron in them. Iron is the key to that dark blue-green color, but Double Dark also contains 16% nitrogen because the iron won't work if the lawn isn't actively growing.
The nitrogen in 16-0-0 Double Dark isn't over the top, it's just respectable at 16% and, 25% of that N is slow-release. You will get some green from the Nitrogen, but it's not going to cause too much top growth. The nitrogen is really just there to stimulate intake of the Iron and other soil nutrients.
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.
All-Natural Bio-Nite™ in Every Bag!
Bio-Nite is a bio-solid filler added to every bag of 16-0-0 Double Dark. Bio-Nite is the same thing as Milorganite, but comes out of South Florida instead of Milwaukee. The included Bio-Nite is feeding microbes in the soil every time you apply!

Dark green
This product worked great for my lawn. Turned it dark green. I’m not a lawn scientist, so I don’t know what else it did but it sure made it look good.
Stained my sidewalk and driveway worse than any product I haver used
Second time I used the product. First time no issues. Second time it caused hundreds of rust stains on my sidewalk and driveway. Even stained my neighbor's sidewalk due to too much iron in the fertilizer. Even caused deep brown stains in my zoyisa lawn. I will never use it again. Costing me hundreds and a lot of labor hours to get the stains removed. Not sure if the lawn will recover.

Grass didn’t seem to get that double dark or dark green. Maybe it’s the type of grass I use and I live in the PNW
United StatesGood Stuff
I used this on my St Augustine grass and it worked great.
United StatesGood but could be great
I have used the test twice and it has helped but only on the p h because I understand P H but it seems too complicated to figure out each thing that isn't in optimal condition. I need to know at what point do I need to react and what do I need to do. ie optimum is 3 to 5 and mine is 8 do I need to do anything What do I need to do I have some results in red why I understand I got the results and they seem well done but for $30 I was hoping for some simple suggestions this report and no details on how to change or if it needs attention is little help for me. I will not use again. The p h is in black why
