- Reduces water usage by up to 20%

Ingredients
Wetting agent: A lawn surfactant that helps water soak into dry, compacted soil instead of pooling on the surface. This is the key to drought resilience and fewer dry spots.
Seaweed and potassium: These help your grass tolerate heat and recover from hot, dry stretches. Think of it as giving your lawn a longer fuse before it starts browning out.
Humic acid: Improves your soil's ability to absorb and deliver nutrients to grass roots. Healthier roots mean a lawn that can pull more from every watering.
How to use
Apply before drought conditions set in for the best results. Early morning or late evening is ideal.
- Water your lawn well before you start. Dry soil won't absorb the treatment as effectively.
- Connect the included sprayer to your garden hose and attach a pouch. Distribute evenly across your lawn until the pouch is empty, about 10 to 15 minutes per pouch.
- Match pouches to your lawn size. 1,000 to 2,500 sq ft gets one pouch. 2,500 to 5,000 sq ft gets two pouches. 5,000 to 7,500 sq ft uses all three.
- Water thoroughly after application to help everything soak in. Stay off the grass until it dries.
- Reapply every 4 weeks from spring through fall, up to 8 applications per year for ongoing drought defense lawn treatment.

Questions & answers

Verified UserQuestion: Will drought defense help green my lawn or do I need another fertilizer?
Sunday
Drought Defense is a preventative product designed to help grass survive drought stress through better water distribution in soil. It's not meant to green up your lawn since it has no nitrogen (it's 0-0-1). For actually greening your lawn, you'd want something with more nitrogen like Grass Powerhouse, Green Machine, or Super S, which have higher nitrogen content for that vibrant green color. You could use Drought Defense alongside a greening fertilizer in late spring/early summer to prepare your grass for summer stress while building that color at the same time

Question: On my plan I have the lawn aid heat stress prevention treatment to be applied in the first couple of weeks of June. Can I add the Drought Defense product to use in August when we have almost zero rainfall and waves of heat up to 90/100? Or will it be too much?
Jeff McConathy
That won't be too much! These pouches don't include any nitrogen, so we have a bit more flexibility with incorporating them relative to some of our other pouches. Lawn Aid from is best used to help encourage deep root growth/better heat resilience, and Drought Defense will help to improve water retention and Drought Defense will help with water retention and reduce water use. We generally recommend using these pouches every 4-6 weeks (if needed) during the summer months, so aiming for Lawn Aid in early June and then Drought Defense in early/mid July would be perfect.

Question: What is the difference between the drought defense lawn treatment and the lawn aid heat stress prevention treatment. They seem to be almost the same.
Louisa D.
Great question! Drought Defense is designed to be used in arid climates or regions currently experiencing periods of low rainfall, helping maintain a healthy, green lawn. Lawn Aid, on the other hand, is designed as a preventative before arid or low rainfall conditions exist.
