FAQs:
What is Total Lawn (2-4-1) Starter Fertilizer? How does it work?
Total Lawn is made from cold-processed hydrolyzed fish and offers a natural way to deliver essential nutrients without synthetic chemicals. It feeds the soil biology as well as the grass, supporting long-term lawn health and resilience.
Total Lawn has a 2-4-1 NPK ratio that is ideal for new growth and establishment.
What size lawn does a bottle of Total Lawn cover?
Each bottle covers about 2,500 square feet - about the size of a tennis court. For reference, a 5,500 square foot lawn is about the size of a basketball court. This measurement does not include your house or landscaping features - just determine your lawn size by the amount of turf you are treating.

Is Total Lawn safe for my kids and pets?
Yes. All of our products, including Total Lawn, are made from natural ingredients and no harsh chemicals. This means that they are safe for your kids and pets, as well as better for the earth and your grass.
My yard smells like fish after applying Total Lawn. What gives?
Total Lawn is a liquid fish fertilizer. It’s potent and all natural - but it does smell like fish. Typically this smell will go away relatively quickly after watering in the product and giving it time to dry.
How long do I need to wait to let my dog play on the lawn?
We recommend watering in the product before letting pets or kids back out to play, simply because the pH of our products may cause mild eye or skin irritation.
Is Total Lawn Starter Fertilizer part of my custom lawn plan?
Total Lawn Starter Fertilizer is not part of your lawn plan. It can be purchased as an add-on, and it is included with our Seeding Pack.
How would I use Total Lawn with my custom lawn care plan?
You can use Total Lawn whenever you are seeding! If your plan includes seed, consider adding in Total Lawn for an extra boost for growth. If you are seeding outside of your lawn plan, you can also use Total Lawn for that.
I have too much product. Can I save it for later?
Yes. Lawnbright products have a shelf life of 1 year, so you can store products in your garage, shed or basement for next season.
I’m a beginner. Are the products hard to apply?
Not at all! Lawnbright is designed to be beginner friendly, with no special equipment needed. Simply hook your Lawnbright products up to your hose and spray them on your lawn - that’s it!
