Easy seed and fertilizer!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Used the EZ seed this past weekend and really like how it has the brown mulch with the seed so you can see exactly where the product is going and that you cover the entire area needing to be patched! Great product!

Definitely would not every buy again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought three containers in an attempt to get grass to grow on three bare spots in my yard. The grass never grew. It was a total waste of my money and my time. I would not recommend this product to anyone.

We sorry for the disappointment you have experienced with the results of your recent seeding effort and would like to offer a few tips that may be helpful to you in future seeding endeavors. As with any seed product, ScottsEZ Seed Sun & Shade 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 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 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. You may visit our contact page by clicking on the following link http://tinyurl.com/7ag7a3n

Real EZ seed, no thinking required!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Scotts ez seed is just as it says EZ. All you have to do is remove all thatch, shake the seed out onto the ground. Done! Everything is included, seed, fertilizer and cover included in container. You can even tell when you need to water by the color of the area after it is applied. The grass looks great from the seed.

EZ Seed Sun & Shade

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I applied the EZ Seed Sun & Shade seed to a shaded area with a southern exposure in early Sept. With daily watering the seed germinated and grew after 1 week. I recommend EZ Seed Sun & Shade for small areas or where you grass is thin due to shading.

100% crab grass

First let me say that I am a believer in Scott products and have had good experience with seed and spreaders. However, when I went to fill in a few minor patches with this product, my otherwise excellent Scott assisted lawn sprung crab grass in every single spot this was applied. Now I have a new problem. Unless you are looking for crab grass do steer clear of this product. In fact I would suggest that Scott take this off the market.

We are sorry that you have been disappointed by the appearance of weeds in your newly seeded areas. Our seeds are guaranteed to be 99.9% weed free. Weed seeds are exposed when the soil is turned and will germinate right along with the new seed. Weed seeds may also be introduced to the area through the addition of topsoil or straw.

Does the job!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Scotts EZ Seed Sun & Shade really works. We prepared the ground by roughing it up with a rake first and then spread the seed. The shaker/spreader top makes that really convenient. Then we watered. We watered again over the next several days as per instructions and got really good growth. We had to reapply the seed in a few spots later but they germinated and sprouted just fine. So we're real pleased with the result we got with this product. And in a shaded location, too. Thanks Scotts.

Stubborn bald area now green!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have this stubborn area in my lawn with hard compacted soil, I loosened the soil and used EZ Seed and now I have grass. It took about 7 days for the grass to germinate. The EZ seed product was easy to use and stays in place when you water it, which to me was the key to success.

Grass, grass, grass!

I have a large lawn and sometimes get areas where grass is damaged or killed. For a small or big spot, I clean the area, add a little topsoil for good measure, then use Scotts EZ-Seed and lots of water. In a week or so, I'm always amazed at the lush fill-in spot that appears. It's a great product, but just a little pricey...try to find it on sale and use it when needed.

E Z seed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This stuff is great. It’s so easy to use since it comes in this great recloseable jug! Use as little or as much as you need by simply sprinkling it out! No bag to fall over & spill out. Plus the seedlings work every time. We like to say the grass would grow in cement!
