Not to disparage any products that work because this one does. BUT….I just dealt with a few brown spots in my lawn due to hydrophobic soil and I used baby shampoo and water. Sprayed yesterday and just got home from work (6:30pm) and I already notice a huge difference! I’m shocked. Whether you use this product or baby shampoo, both will fix your hydrophobic soil. Amazing.

I have a feeling it worked for me. but I have such a large area that I think I am not able to keep up with water needs. I water... but hard to tell this product actually made a difference for me. Looks the same as always when I water last year, but could be the record breaking 100F days causing the inability to tell, so I guess it depends on your soil condition on how well this product works. I have bermuda. (South Carolina/ near charlotte north Carolina)
