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

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.

All filler

I was extremely disappointed with this product. Did I buy any grass seed? It seem as though I only got filler and mulch. For the money, this was extremely frustrating. All other patches looked like my picture or grew no grass at all! I would have been better off buying a cheaper bag of seed and covering with grass clippings.

We are sorry for the disappointment you have experienced with the results of your recent seeding effort. As with any seed product, ScottsEZ Seed 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 EZ Seed Tall Fescue evenly over the prepared area. EZ Seed Tall Fescue should be sparsely applied to the depth of about 1/16" to 1/8" thick. If EZ Seed 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 germination of the seed. When used on newly germinated lawns, herbicides will kill off the new grass. For best results, daytime temperatures must typically be in the 60-80°F. range and not going below 50°F at night. Seeds will not germinate if the temperatures are cold at night, or are fluctuating from high day temperature to very low night time temperatures. The best time to seed cool season grasses is early to mid-fall. 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

Ez seed sun and shade

I planted this in an area that get little to no sun hoping for the product to work as described ("Grows anywhere guaranteed, even grows in dense shade"). Well not to my surprise it did nothing.I new it was to good to be true. I watered daily not over watering either. The ground was prepared like it should but I got zilch. Going to go with mulch I guess in this area. returning rest of seed for full refund.

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 give us a call at 877-220-3089 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.

Works great and is so easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is easy to use...scratch ground, sprinkle and water. I planted this seed during a raining period so after planting I literally did nothing but watch it grow. (If you use it follow directions and water until established)

Easy to apply

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Product was easy to apply. I had some results, but in their defense it was in a poor area that I have always had trouble growing grass. I think it needs new topsoil before I will see any improvments.

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.

like the idea of mulch, seed and fertilizer all in one

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product has been great in large and small areas that need to be reseeded. The mulch holds the water and seed. You can see the grass growing in 3-4 days. And it fills in completely in a week or two.
