My Lawn: A Guide to Lawn Care 4+

I think this app is great, with consistent reminders of what to apply and when for the lawn care products. I only wish there was a similar feature for the watering. While you can see the total water for your lawn over the last 7 days, I wish the app would tell you when you will fall below the 7 day cumulative 1inch of water level. One recommendation is to provide the additional detail of the past 7 days of watering so I can then predict when I will be below the 1 inch water level. Another option is to push a reminder of sorts when you fall below the 1 inch level.

Without that I find myself going into the app manually (and without consistency) hoping to catch when I should be watering my lawn. While nutrients and lawn care products help out my lawn tremendously, watering it helps it the most to stay green. A little change to the app would help ensure I stay on top of watering it without wasting water or waiting too long between waterings.

I have always used Scott’s products and even hired their spray service for a while. My lawn was hit or miss every year. Many people in our neighborhood use various services, but there were about 3-4 that have the best lawns I’ve ever seen. When asked what was the secret, who they use, there was one common denominator, The Scott’s App! They all raves about it and follow it religiously and told me the “why” of how it works. It’s all about timing! I’ve always been using the right product, just the wrong time. Usually driven by temperature and the advise given at the hardware store. Matter of factly, this year following the app I went and bought the first product when it said to apply it. My trusted hardware store said I was nuts for putting down what the app said and when. They couldn’t have been more wrong. My lawn has never been this healthy, weed free, and green this early in the spring. I usually waiting until late April or early May for bonus S, that’s way to late as I know now! Thanks to the app! Thanks Scott’s, this is a lawn game changer!!!!

Love the app but I wish there was one more feature. It has two main buttons for each step, a “Skipped” and “Applied” button, but I would also like to see a “Schedule” button so I can schedule an alert/reminder for the day I’d like to put the product down. For example, I plan on putting down GrubEx but after using the Ask Us a Question via text messaging, I was told that “Thank you for choosing Scotts Miracle-Gro. I would be happy to assist you today. I do see that you want to apply GrubEx about 2 weeks before Memorial Day for best results.” So that is when I plan to do so, but now I’m getting alerts almost daily saying “Your lawn and the weather forecast agree: Tuesday is a great day for applying Scotts® GrubEx®”. So 1, I’m getting conflicting information, and 2, it would be nice to be able to schedule a reminder instead of having to use a separate calendar app to plan it out.
