Overview

The Andersons Lean & Green® 2-0-0 is a professional-grade lawn iron supplement designed to deepen and intensify your lawn's color without contributing to excessive top growth. It is safe for use on all turf types and can be applied any time during the growing season, but is especially beneficial in the summer when lawns tend to turn yellow as a result of stress. Other lawn iron supplements use ferric oxide (Fe3+) as their iron source. The availability of Fe3+ is highly dependent on the soil pH, and is mostly available in acidic soils (pH of less than 7). For each one unit in pH rise, Fe3+ availability reduces 1,000 fold! The iron source in Lean & Green is ferrous sulfate (Fe2+), a highly plant available form of iron that is not impacted by soil pH ranges. This is especially beneficial considering most iron deficiencies occur in high pH soils.

Lean & Green can be applied in conjunction with another fertilizer at the time of application and with fertilizer programs.

APPLYING LEAN & GREEN®
- Lean & Green® 2-0-0 is safe for all turf types. It should be applied when turf is actively growing. Do not apply during periods of extended drought unless irrigation is available and used.
- Apply product to dry foliage.
- Important - Due to the iron content in this formula, particles left on driveways and sidewalks will leave stains. Be sure to sweep stray particles back onto your lawn.
- Immediately water in with a minimum of 0.2 inches.

The spreader settings for this product were established using standard equipment available from the spreader manufacturer at swath widths and speeds typically used within the industry. Many variables such as walking speed, terrain, particle size, density, and spreader condition can affect these settings. Spreader settings are intended as a guide and unit calibration should still be performed to ensure proper application rates. They are not intended to replace calibration. The Andersons recommends the use of broadcast spreader for its products.

Gret Results!

Applied it for a second month and the "stuff" is as good as it gets! I will apply The Andersons 4-2-0 Fertilizer with Hydra Charge in a few days to supplement. I'm experiencing some clover growth, and I've read the cause is a nitrogen-deficient lawn. So, applying the 4-2-0 fertilizer hopefully will do the trick.

Great product

Worked as advertised. Lawn greened up within a week with limited top growth in Georgia summer heat.

Helpful for my Bermuda

I have challenging Bermuda grass. Due to slope and more shade I have to keep my deck higher when I mow. So that dullness can show more at 4 inches and not the ideal 2 inches if I had a perfect scenario. The first time I put the product onto the grass unfortunately I got a ton of rain and I think that that impacted the way that the product worked because it really got hammered pretty quickly after the first application so yesterday I put down a second application and I can see today after a day and a half that it’s looking a little bit greener. I need to give it some more time. I will definitely do a third bag because I do feel the effect is cumulative and my grass is taller, so I think that this will be a benefit and I do recommend the product even though I can’t see the full benefit yet

Amazing Product

This was the first application of Lean & Green. My lawn really perked up and about 90 % of my front lawn is green & thick. I've received compliments from a neighbor on my lawn and asked my what fertilizer product I used: I show him a bag of The Andersons Lean & Green - he said he'll give it a try. I'm applying a 2nd application of Lean & Green after 5 weeks from applying the first. So. I'm looking forward to seeing my lawn even thicker and green!
