This is a statement from the CEO of ScottsMiracle-Gro: "As the market leader in consumer lawn and garden, there is no better company than ScottsMiracle-Gro to play a role in the restoration effort."

Mr. Hagedorn, there are many better companies than yours to play a role in the restoration effort. You're popular and very proficient in the home lawn market, but this is essentially an unmarked, oversized football field. The shit that's most popular in the NFL is EarthWorks Replenish 8-2-2. The second word in the last sentence is operative: it is.a 50-50 blend of ammonium sulfate and composted poultry manure. It smells as bad as Trump does, but it works very well.
