Works well in shade

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Even though it wasn't the perfect time of year to plant this Sun and Shade seed, we put some under a large plant that had blank spots underneath that we wanted to fill in with grass. It starting growing right away.

Been using this on and off for the last two years.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works great for small (patch) areas. Needs to be watered every day for best results. I will be purchasing another ones as I'm finally out. I'm surprised it still worked this year since I've had it for a couple years.

Very easy to use and excellent results!

I had to have the drain pipe from house to septic tank replaced. I went to Target and bought your Scott's EZ seed in a 3.75 lb plastic bottle. By the way it is available in Florida. Within 2 weeks after planting and watering every couple of days, I had filled in the whole area with a rich thick healthy new lawn. I would reccomend this product to anyone who is repairing an existing lawn.

This product was so, so.

Used this product a few years ago and had the same problem. Finally went to regular seeds out of a bag. Patched up a few spots with it this year and did what they said to do. Still waiting for signs of grass popping up and I have an irrigation system.....the rest of my lawn looks wonderful.

reply from Scotts Consumer Service

We apologize for the inconvenience you’ve experienced when using the product. This particular product usually has a lot of success stories from users, but it is helpful when we get reviews like yours to help us produce quality product. For Cool Season grasses like Bluegrass, Ryegrass, and different types of Fescues soil temperatures must be at least 55 degrees (+12.7 Celsius) for grass seed to germinate and can take between 4 -21 days to see germination. Warm season grasses like Bermudagrass, Centipede and Zoysia, which germinates in early summer, requires soil temperatures between 75 - 90 degrees (24 - 32 Celsius) and can take between 5-28 days to see visible germination. Watering also plays a defining factor in germination. We recommend watering 1-2 times a day until germination is visible and then watering 1- 1 ½” per week as needed. Both excessive watering and not enough watering can slow down or even stop germination of the product. If you have any other questions or concerns please feel free to contact us at http://tinyurl.com/mds8zo5 and one of our representatives would be glad to assist you. We hope this issue 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.

Effective and easy to use but expensive

When this product first came out, we used it all over our lawn to repair bare spots. However now we use it on areas where the underlying soil is not very good because of its expense. Instead where the soil is fine we scratch the surface and apply seed directly.

lawn seed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband purchased this lawn seed last year and it worked great. We have two big dogs who love to run and play in the yard. The grass grew great. So this year it was a no brainer, we purchased the same lawn seed again.

Grass seed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A convenient and easy way to repair lawns. A great combination seed mix in a easy carry container without the hassle of how to seal up the package when you don't need all of the product. The easy flip open lid allows one to spread out the seed you need without having to get out a separate spreader.

Makes Patching your small spots easy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Having two dogs that think the world is their bathroom creates lot of small dead spots on the lawn. I tried the product and within five days I saw the areas starting to shown new growth. You need to keep the area moist so that the seed gets a good chance to get started.

This product does what it says it will.

I used EZ Seed for Sun & Shade to patch an area of my backyard that was denuded when my Patio was repaved. I initially planned to sod the area, but saw the EZ Seed at the garden center and decided to try it. I have tried patch products before that did not work. I applied EZ Seed and saw grass sprouts within 2 weeks, It is now 4 weeks since I poured EZ Seed on the area and I have grass about 2" tall. I have told several family members and neighbors about my experience with EZ Seed and they are trying it. Thank you for a product that works!

So Hopeful

I was hoping to reapiar a bare area in my yard that was damaged from all of the rain from last year. I raked and losseend existing soil. Added a small amout of top soil. I bought the 20 pound bags and a 10 pound bag for the area. Spread the EZ seed evenly and covered the entire area. Watered the first 3 days and then we have had regular rain since then. It has been 3 weeks and I have a few small patches and nothing else to show for it. Will be buying sod to resolve this issue. How do I collect on the guarantee?
