Southern AG Iron Granules Question...

I had bought this product to give my lawn a quick green up for July 4th weekend, but after reading the label I'm having some concerns.
No where on the label do they advertise their product "giving a deep green to your lawn" like we are all used to. Instead, all it seems to focus on is use this product to "lower your soil's pH".
Is this iron supplement something different than your typical iron product that gives you a quick, deep green up?

This 30% Iron is the Monohydrate, which is not as soluble and will not be absorbed by the plant as quickly. That's probably why they sell it as a pH amendment product. For fast green up using Iron nothing beats the foliar sprays. It's like shooting up the Iron into the turf grass.. no need to depend on soil chemistries to get that going for you.
Hope you had a good 4th nonetheless!
