  • Works great and easy to apply.
Size: 1 Gallon
I have used this product several times in the past few years and I love! It works; not overnight but after a few weeks it makes a notable difference in areas where my lawn had clay or compacted soil that isn't great soil for lawns and Covington liquid aerator has made it grow grass like the rest of my lawn! ... show more

  • Best thing I have ever put on my lawn!
Size: 1 Quart
Have to admit, I was sceptical. However, after only 3 days, my lawn has responded fantastically! I had 5 or 6 brown spots that I thought I would have to reseed. The rest of the lawn was growing unevenly with parts barely growing and other spots growing normally. In most places in the lawn, I could only push a screwdriver into the soil 2 or 3 inches. My lawn was so hard and bumpy my lawnmower was bouncing around while mowing. I applied the Covington Liquid Lawn Aerator just 3 days ago at 32oz for 6000 square feet. I watered it in with my garden hose sprayer as recommended. Lucky for me, that evening, we received an unexpected 1" rainfall. I think that may have contributed to the product working so quickly for me. Anyway, 3 days later, it looks like I have a new lawn! The brown spots have all but disappeared. The entire lawn looks lush and green and feels soft and cushiony under foot. I can push my 6" screwdriver into the soil up to the handle with minimal effort. I have spent hundreds of dollars on lawn services, fertilizers, etc. , but the Covington Liquid Lawn Aerator improved my lawn more than all of that. After my purchase, the Covington company emailed me to ensure that I was satisfied with the product and offered expert help and advice should I require it. Truly a remarkable product and company. I should say that perhaps my results are better than normal, perhaps because of the rain we received. The accompanying literature stresses that lawn rejuvenation is a long term effort, but they do have a guarantee. I am very pleased with my purchase and will be using Covington Liquid Lawn Aerator from now on. ... show more

  • Good Quality
Size: 1 Quart
I haven't used the product yet, need to wait for a certain time of the day. After reading the directions it sounds easy to mix and apply and just wait for the results. I had set up a lawn service to apply the liquid which would had cost $115.00 an application and it would have been twice, spring and fall. buying the product at $35.00 and applying myself saves me some money. Maybe I can post a picture later. I am happy and excited ... show more

  • Coverage does not appear to be as advertised says 12000 sq ft, I got less than 1000 sq ft.
Size: 1 Quart
UPDATE: 9/28/2020: Upping to 3 stars .While I can't endorse the product yet I did call Covington Naturals and their customer service was excellent. When applying the product you do not have to saturate the area, which I don't feel that I was doing and I still did not get the coverage. Covington admitted that their instructions could be better for homeowners. They offered to send out another bottle which I will apply at a lower setting and will move much faster as they assured me the biologicals in this aerator will still get into the lawn and spread. They assured me that you should be able to get the coverage. We shall see, but I can definitely endorse their customer service. Stay tuned for another update once I get the new bottle. 9/27/2020: 1 Star. The product explanation papers that came with the product say to use 4-6 oz for 12000 sq ft of coverage. It says most fixed sprayers are set at 6 oz per gallon. So I set my Ortho sprayer to 6 oz. I ran through about half of the product over maybe 200 sq ft. So I looked at the back of the bottle and it says to use 2 oz per gallon!. I used the other half of the bottle quite rapidly as well. I think 12000 sq ft would have about covered my lawn, but I'm lucky if I got a total of 800 sq ft out of this product using the recommended settings. That said no I have no idea at all if the product works and probably won't find out because all the product is in a small area. I sure hope it doesn't harm my lawn! VERY DISAPPOINTED and confused with the use of this product. I really wanted this to be a good solution for loosening up my soil. ... show more

  • Time will tell....only 3rd application.
Size: 1 Quart
Arrived faster than scheduled. 3rd application (2 last fall), this is my spring application. Hoping for positive soil improvements but will have to wait and see. My grass (fortunately) was always green so didn't see any improvement there like others do. Will continue using on my dense clay soil...small $$ hoping for big benefits. ... show more

  • Just sprayed today
Size: 1 Quart
I’ll give it 5 stars initially because it smells good and I want to taste it, but my better half said no. I used the red top ortho sprayer to apply this to the yard. I started off with 8oz of product in the sprayer, and like a doofus set the sprayer head dial to “8oz”. One small 7’x7’ ft spot of my yard now has about $10 of product in it as it emptied the sprayer jug FAST. I then dialed it down (without reading instructions of course) to about 1tblspoon but that took forever. Finally felt 4tablespoons setting on the dial felt about right. Slow application but definitely getting pumped out. I went over the lawn twice with that setting as I have very hard clay cement under my st Augustine grass. I also applied another 8oz directly and exclusively to a trench line I’ve been trying to dig out. It’s been to hard for a pick axe and a tiller can’t make any good progress either. Really hoping this helps soften it up. I’ll check tomorrow and see if anything magical happened overnight. FYI I watered the lawn manually after each application, just a nice slow spray down to try and get the product into the soil but not so much it ran off into the street. I preemptively ordered another jug as I used the bulk between the trench line, that 7’x7’ corner, and the rest of the lawn. I figure I’ll reapply in a few weeks and then again mid-spring if it works this time around. If it helps me dig this trench, it’ll be worth it. If it makes my grass happier, that’ll be a bonus. Stay tuned. UPDATE: Not sure what I was expecting, but it didn’t magically soften the clay packed soil I was trenching. One thing I have noticed in the two weeks since I’ve sprayed the lawn is that it’s become easier to stab the sprinklers into the ground. Whereas before I would constantly bend the cheap metal sprinkler stake, now the problem is often that the sprinkler feels too loose. So maybe this stuff works. I have been watering every 2 days this summer to keep the lawn alive, so it could just be that.. but I genuinely feel as if the soil is easier to penetrate this year. I’ve also noticed the blade width of my st Augustine has almost doubled in size. Where it would normally be about 1/8”-1/4” in width, some blades are freaking half an inch wide. I did recently fertilize, and of course frequent watering, so again.. could be that… but I think I’ll give the lawn a good spray or two every year with this stuff. When your team wins the Super Bowl you make sure you’re wearing the same socks the following year… so I’m not changing anything up if the grass is the best it’s ever been! ... show more

  • Read the directions from Amazon, not the bottle…my grass is dead.
Size: 1 Quart
The directions are not clear on the bottle. I was prepared to mix this with water, but the directions specifically said “Apply 10oz of concentrate to 1000 sq ft…” Literally nothing about mixing with water. I guess the ratio (10oz to 1000sq ft) is the clue to mix with water. Now that my grass is turning yellow and possibly dying, I check the pictures Amazon…they clearly show you need to mix with water. I double checked the bottle…nothing about mixing with water. Now I’ve turned into one of those people who are the reason for directions to be written for 5 year olds. ... show more

  • Helped my lawn recover from drought conditions
Size: 1 Quart
Even though I just applied it, I’m basing my review on how easy it was to apply and whether I saw any benefit to my lawn. First I waited for a good rainfall to soak my lawn and help it recover from drought stress. Then I used the red Ortho hose end sprayer. I set it to the max setting. If you do this, make sure you move quickly so it gets applied evenly. After a few days I could tell that my lawn was taking advantage of the nutrients because it was greening up. You might say it was also due to the recent rain, but my neighbor’s lawn did not bounce back as quickly as mine did. Also, I can tell by how it smells that there are quality ingredients in the jug. Smells like molasses and seaweed. Similar to other organic/all natural liquids on the market that are way more expensive. I will update my review in the fall after the growing season is over to determine if the ground is less compacted. My backyard gets constant foot traffic from my kids playing sports. Not sure if this will replace core aeration. Time will tell. ... show more
