Scotts EZ Seed

I must of purchased at least 10 of these to use to fill in bare patches and followed directions to the letter. Grass grew and looked quite nice.The problem was, after the winter, there was no more grass and the bare patches are right back again. It seems like it's just a temporary grass and does not last. My neighbor had the same issues. Very disappointed and costly.

We apologize for the inconvenience experienced. To go through all that work, and get to see germination just to watch it die is a heartfelt situation that we at Scotts take very serious. We try to let consumers know that extreme frosts will kill off the seedlings. Extra watering may prevent the effects, but it must be done during the day, prior to extreme weather. If you have any questions or would like further assistance, please contact us at http://tinyurl.com/mds8zo5 and one of our representatives would be glad to assist you. We hope this experience has not caused you to lose faith in our product, as we use reviews like yours to maintain and improve the quality product that you and other consumers have come to know and love.

Very effective on bare spots

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used this product in the past and always get great results. A few weeks ago I changed some bedding areas in my landscape and as a result had to re-seed some areas. The ez-seed came in quickly and is already filling in the bare spots. Just use as directed and keep moist for great results.

Scotts eZ Seed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used to buy regular grass seed and then add starter fertilizer in an attempt to repair lawn spots. Many times my attempts failed or were not successful. Since I have started using Scotts eZ Seed, I have had 100% success rate. It's easy to use and when added with Scott Lawn Soil, it generates beautiful, luscious, thick grass. It's the perfect mixture of grass types. Best product ever!

This is a great product at an affordable price

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has been a wonderful product for patching those little holes that all of us have just ruff the soil I wet after and just sprinkle EZ SEED and just after a few days you will see the grass coming up

Has not impressed.

I removed a flower bed and replaced with EZ seed last Fall I got decent growth after 2 weeks but never survived Winter. Also seeded on West side of house and never got growth, and re-seeded this Spring and after 2 weeks still nothing watered everyday. Have had better luck with plain seed and starter fertilizer, which I may end up doing.

Hello. We're sorry for the disappointment you have experienced with the results of your recent seeding effort. We would like to offer a few tips that may be helpful to you in future seeding endeavors. As with any seed product, Scotts Ezseed Tall Fescue requires both continuous moisture and warm soil temperatures. When one of these conditions is missing, poor germination is the result. Be sure to spread the Scotts EZ Seed Patch & Repair evenly over the prepared area. It should be sparsely applied to a depth of about 1/16" to 1/8" thick. If Scotts Ezseed Tall Fescue has been applied too thickly, germination will be poor. Also, make sure that no weed control or weed prevention product has been used where you are seeding, as those products will also prevent or inhibit the germination of the seed. When used on newly germinated lawns, herbicides will kill off the new grass. We hope these extra tips are helpful. Temperature plays a critical role in seedling germination. Soil temperatures for northern (cool season) type turfgrass seeds (Kentucky bluegrass, ryegrass, and fescue) must be at least 55° F for the seeds to germinate. For best results, daytime temperatures must typically be in the 60-80 °F range and not go below 50 °F at night. Soil temperatures for warm-season grass seed (bermudagrass, zoysiagrass, centipedegrass, bahiagrass) must be around 70° F for the seeds to germinate. For best results, daytime temperatures should be 77° F or higher and not go below 60° F at night. Seeds will not germinate if the temperatu We want you to be confident in our products. For this reason, we offer a product guarantee. If for any reason you, the consumer, are not satisfied with the results after using this product, you are entitled to get your money back. Limitations apply. At your earliest convenience, please reach out to us at 888-270-3714 if we can further assist.

Works great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a couple of areas in my front yard that I thought I was going to have to resod. I put this down on the spots and the grass quickly came back. It looks like my regular normal grass and cane in pretty thick.

Go to Seed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my Go To Seed. I have ripped up parts of my lawn changing landscapes and a broken waterline. I always come back to Scotts EZ Seed because there is so little to do. Pour it on and water it. That's my kind of finish work.

Pour and GO

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son had a fence installed around his house and had clumps of dirt at the base of the 18 metal posts that were put in for the fence. We raked down the clumps of clay and spread some topsoil on top of the clay. I then poured the EZ seed on top of the soil and used a rake to rake over the seed and topsoil to mix them together. We watered the areas for 8 days before we started to see new grass grow in the area we had seeded. Now 4 weeks later it is hard to see where we had reseeded because the new grass had blended in with the old grass and is all looks so uniform.

Sound Product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this product to repair some spots on my lawn caused by pets . after prepping the areas the seed patch was easy to apply - just pour and walk away. Within a week I was seeing growth. The hardest part is prepping the needed areas - loosening the dirt after removing the dead grass
