    We had a major drought issue in our city this past summer, along with a water restriction so we were unable to use a sprinkler in our yard per city law. We were so excited to get this free product from Get Sunday and Influenster. We were able to test some of it before the growing season ended and it definitely perked up the yellowed spots in our yard. Thank you so much! We are looking forward to using it throughout next summer.
