Thanks for posting! How do I use brick seek? I went to the site and punched in Milo's UPC (046539620364) and it said no results in your area. Did I do it right?
For lowes when I found the recent Scott's deal that worked gor me with item number. This didnt though, I used whatever tool they have next to the search function to help me find my item. I searched milorganite 36 and it found what I needed.

To use brickseek go find the product on Wal-Mart's web site. Then copy the last 8 numbers in the top web address bar(SKU#) and paste in the SKU at brickseeks site. I filled 2 plastic 55 gallon barrels with all but 3 bags😂 My walmart was the only one with that price within 50 miles, said there was 35 bags in stock. Everywhere else was sold out or still $9. Think if stock it high then you'll get the $4 bags.

Two types of Professional Milorganite bags...

There are "classic" bags, which are the same as regular Milo (sometimes 6-2-0 though) in terms of granule size. These are common at places like SIteOne.

There is also "Greens Grade", which is the smaller size granules for short cut turf.

Both are in 50-lb bags.

I wanted to find Scotts Starter with tenacity or Bayer Grub Control and stumbled on the Milo. I saw a bunch left and was hoping they would go lower than $9 and a week later $4.50. I would of bought the Scotts DiseasEX for that. Had good results using it this year. Milo is about the only thing my Walmart had left (35 bags per brickseek) I rolled out with 28..thought it was 25....but counted the empty bags today and it was 28...only charged for 25 :shock: I just store it in 2 air tight 55 gallon plastic drums with lock rings. I don't think it would go bad if you keep it cool and dry, or at least dry. Ill probably throw in a few 1 pound desiccant bags in each drum.

See my post about Lowes for the Starter Fert + Tenacity. $8.99/bag!

Are you guys stocking up for next year? Getting a little late in the season to use organics.
Just taking advantage of 1/2 off Milo. I've never seen It priced that low. I use a lot of It. It is still mid 80s here in Indiana, so might thrower down one more time then use my stockpile of Miracle Gro for Lawns (36%N) for my fall blitz this year.

I gotta say I am absolutely impressed with Milo. It has showed to be (in my experience) the PERFECT product to use for a scalp. It takes a tad more patience, but the results are real. I have noticed not only the non burn, but the grass comes back much thicker and greener. Does my wife hate the smell for about a week? Yes. I just tell her that's the smell of the neighbors jealousy.
