Miracle-Gro Partners with Nick Cannon on New Super Seed Fertilizer 

In a groundbreaking collaboration, Miracle-Gro has joined forces with Nick Cannon to introduce their latest innovation: the "Super Seed" fertilizer. This partnership aims to revolutionize gardening by combining Miracle-Gro's expertise in lawn care with Cannon's expertise in creating life.

Jim Hagedorn, Chairman and CEO of Miracle-Gro, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration, stating, “It may come as a surprise to some, but Nick is no stranger to a hoe. He tells me every weekend he’s waist-deep in a bush. Gardening is in this man’s DNA, and we are excited to spread his seed across lawns from coast to coast.”

Cannon's Seed, a key component of the new fertilizer, boasts roots that penetrate deep into the soil, promoting stronger, healthier plants. In a user test, lawns treated with Cannon's Seed have shown remarkable results, with grass growing fuller, thicker, and up to 10 times faster than those treated with other brands.

“The secret is in the application process,” says Chief Scientist Brian Birrenkott, “See, most lawn seed is distributed with a spreader or mixed with water and sprayed through a hose, but the Super Seed is different. Using a conventional tire pump, fill the sack containing the seed until it’s firm, then slap to activate. Then pull the release tab and step back as Cannon’s seed shoots across your lawn.”  

To celebrate the launch, Miracle-Gro and Cannon are hosting a nationwide tour, stopping in towns across the country for one night, where fans can meet Cannon and sample the new product firsthand. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own seed sacks for a personalized pumping session with Cannon, ensuring their lawns get the superstar treatment.
