David Tester
Our lawn was a disaster. So many almost bare spots and weak looking grass. I can't believe how just one application is turning the yard around...many crawlers now helping to fill the bare places and what lush, really green grass is taking over helping to make a really healthy yard. SO glad we heard about Sunday.

We can't believe the difference in our lawn after just the first application of your product. The deep green color contrasts greatly with our neighbor's yard. We are thrilled and looking forward to continued improvement by crowding out the weeds.
