EZ Seed

Well, I did everything that the instructions said and also used teh on line chat. I bought two EZ's for my lawn. (expensive) I Have watered and still no grass. Maybe it takes more than 10 days. Easy to distribute and great concept if it actually worked. Right now disappointed. Should see some results. I overseed and put on bare spots as directed.

The product is easy to use.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The product is easy to use and works in a timely matter. The combination of the seed, fertilizer, and absorbent growing material is perfect for repairing bare spots and snow mold areas, especially after a long,cold winter.

Easy to use & even my 3 dogs can't destroy it

I primarily use this to repair yellow spots caused by my dogs. Just remove the dead grass. Lightly loosen the the top layer of soil. Sprinkle the EZseed. Add water and your done. Even on the hottest summer days if the EZseed has been thouroughly watered I didn't have the need to water it for another 24 hours. I saw grass seedlings coming up within 3 days and they held up to dogs that were still playing and running through the yard. It's not cheap but it works great. In the end it is much cheaper than any other remedies that you can try. My time is worth money & this product is quick to use & quick to see results. I am a thoroughly satisfied customer.

This product did not work as well as expected

I had to re-seed with this product several times before the grass began to grow. With all of the seed that was sowed the grass should be very thick but it is spotty. I believe in Scotts seed so I will try a different Scotts seed when I re-seed next month.

So far , so good!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have only had this product down a week and it has already taken hold. The product does stay moist after watering which helps immensely. Easy to apply and is coming in very thick. I will see in a few more weeks additional progress as well I suspect!

Easy to apply and grows nice green grass

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to apply container and hold. For best results follow the easy instructions on the back. Grass comes up in the usual time for new grass. Keep watered and you will be rewarded with beautiful green grass.

Simply Does Not Do What It Says It Professes To

I'm a lawn guy and know what I'm doing. I've tried this product over two seasons in 8 different spots that I properly prep prior to use. This product just doesn't perform as advertised. In two seasons I only have one spot out of eight that produced moderate results. Going forward I'll go back to some hand seeding and fertilizing or cutting in pieces of sod.

Three weeks+ and still only sparse growth. Disappointed!

I planted EZ seed in well-prepared ground more than three weeks ago, and have watered and monitored it consistently ever since. There are now still only patches of grass, mostly bare ground and the weeds have pretty much filled in the rest. I am sorely disappointed! I have added regular grass seed to the areas now hoping that something will grow to fill in the bare spots. I would like my money back - is the product "Guaranteed to grow?" because it has not. LOOK AT THE PICTURES and see for yourself.

We are sorry that you did not get the germination that you expected from Scotts Turf Builder EZ Seed. As with any seed product, Scotts EZ Seed Sun & Shade requires both continuous moisture and warm soil temperatures. Be sure to spread the EZ Seed Sun & Shade evenly over the prepared area. EZ Seed Sun & Shade should be sparsely applied to the depth of about 1/16" to 1/8" thick. If EZ Seed Sun & Shade 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 germination of the seed. When used on newly germinated lawns, herbicides will kill off the new grass. We hope these extra tips are helpful. We want you to be confident in our products. For this reason, we offer a product guarantee to our consumers. At your earliest convenience please contact us to see what can be done. http://tinyurl.com/7ag7a3n

Grass Guaranteed To Grow

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used Scotts EZ Seed on bare spots in my lawn. After only 1 week the seed began to germinate. The secret to success is to keep the seed mixture wet (damp) day and night. Cool weather during the Fall season is also very helpful for quick germination of the seed. This is a superior grass product.

Worked wonderfully

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used EZ Seed to repair my dogs "favorite spots" in the yard. I just raked the dead spots and loosened the soil. Simply sprinkled the EZ seed over the spots and kept them watered in about 25 days the grass was filling in nicely.
