Did not work

I was really excited to try this so I bought a nice size bag of the ezSeed to use on various parts of my lawn that needed to be re-seeded. So I followed the instructions explicitly, did everything that was on the instructions. Then I waited - and waited - watered it and waited some more and nothing. SO - I thought I would try it again, never seen one blade of grass. Tried it in other parts of my lawn that was bare and needed some grass - same thing, no grass. If I hadn't been so sure that this would have worked, I would have saved the receipt and returned the bag of "no-good". But I didn't so this was a waste of effort, money and time.

Better that expected results

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ive watched the seed germinate into a lush green lawn in a matter of weeks. The coloring of the grass is a rich green tone similar to marion blue grass seed from decades ago. very pleased with the results and would highly recommend this seed to everyone. I love it

The product meets or exceeds my expectations. I get great results when I follow the easy direction.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The product is simple to use. Just loosen the soil or purple a few inches of new soil over the spot to be repaired. Water twice a day or as needed. See color if light it need moisture. Dark is is good. Read the easy directions on the container. I like the results and the seeds will adjust for sun or shade from seed mixture. III use this annually every spring and during summer for repairs. I use 100 per-cent Scott's seed. It meets my expectations.

Didn't grow. What a waste of money

I should have read these reviews first as seen many have had problems. Trusted Scott's brand. Have been planting and growing grass for years. Was replanting under a tree after clearing out many heavy branches. Wanted the best chance at getting grass to grow. Followed instructions and nothing. Not. Thin lawn, actually no germination after two weeks. Can't believe I bought into the EZ marketing and paid a premium. Should have bought cheap seed and saved the money. Raking iit off and starting over with less money in my pocket.

Great product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this product for a spot my dog had dug up. It was really convenient and useful for a smaller patch job. Turned out great and you can not even tell the dogs had been there. I would recommend this product to anyone.

Waste of time and money

Purchase and placed product over 3 weeks ago, not a single seed germinated. Bought this product to repair some bare spots and dog spots in the lawn. Container states, ‘DOG SPOT REPAIR’ and ‘GROWS ANYWHERE GUARANTEED’. Apparently not in Las Vegas and not in my backyard. I should have just stuck to my previous method of seed, fertilizer, and soil instead of trying to do something the ‘easy’ way. Now I’ll have to go back and do the job again. I guess the old saying about ‘if it sounds too good to be true’ may apply here. Disappointed to say the least. I thought Scotts was a good brand that would work.

so easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Seeds germinated right away and the grass looks great. So easy to use.We did very little preperation before we shook out the seeds. I was impressed with the quickness and quality of the grass growing.

This prodcut works!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have used this product Scotts EZ Seed Sun & Shade since it first came out. We were very skeptical at first. After using this product to fix bare spots in our lawn we continue to use it to this day. So easy to use, not messy and the grass grows fast! We highly recommend this product for lawn repair to all our family and friends.

Good Rescue

I had sod put down last year and then this spring I had a bunch or areas that were dug up by squirrels/raccoons. Very frustrating after spending all that money and we are preparing for a wedding party. Scott's E Z Seed came to the rescue. Was able to loosen exsisting soil, add a little top soil and Scott's E Z Seed and the lawn now looks great. Keep it watered and it works wonders.

No directions on how to open

I bought this product thinking it would be simple and easy to use. Instead, (I have arthritis), it took me 15 minutes to find a way to pry open the "easy open" lid. Imagine my surprise, when I now see a black plastic piece inside and a small white "cover" under that. NO instruction on what to do next. Should I try to break the black plastic piece so I can get to the white seal underneath? It appears to be welded in place, so I started poking at the white seal. Again, NO instruction, no arrow, no poke here. I finally got a small wedge of an opening, and after using a knife, scissors, and finally a screwdriver to poke it into the container was able to actually see the product. It took forever to spread since the white plastic kept resurfacing and getting in the way of the opening for the product. Never again. PS - nothing on your website about how to open either.

We are sorry that you found it difficult to apply Scotts EZ Seed Bermudagrass. The cap of the container would have to be removed so that the white seal can be disposed of. Once the cap is replaced, it can be utilized as a spout to dispense grass seeds. We do offer a guarantee on our products. Please contact us, we would be more than happy to discuss this further with you. You can reach us here: http://tinyurl.com/mds8zo5
