[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was very impressed with this product. It grew well in a shady area that I have had very little success--even with other Scotts products in the past. I am not a big fan of attempting to grow grass in the late Spring but there was a bare spot under a tree that I did not want to have increase in size due to run-off. I planted the seed and it sprouted well in 6 days. I have now mowed twice and it seems to be holding up well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the product to get the small spots that didn't come up. Just like any of the Scotts products, following the directions is the key to success. I've used this for several years and never had a problem. This seed acts fast & fills in fast & that should make you Happy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Cannot use over too much area as it is really pricey, therefore best for just spot repair. Must keep the product wet, must water it more than once per day during sunny weather..make sure the product stays dark brown - it gets light brown when dry. Seeds are slow to germinate and grass does not come out as full as I would like.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] WOW! This product is not only easy to utilize but the results were absolutely amazing and quick. I had numerous spots in my yard that I simply could not get grass to grow for some reason. After following the very easy to understand instructions I have great grass in those locations. In fact these locations look so great, lush, full, and green that I simply wish I could do my whole yard with this. I wish I would had taken before and after photos to share.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Scotts® EZ Seed® Sun & Shade (New Formula) is a great product that does away with the worry and hard work usually required to successfully repair bare spots in your lawn. EZ Seed® is a unique combination of Scotts® high performance seed, a premium continuous release fertilizer, and Scotts® super-absorbent growing material. Follow directions to prepare the area to be seeded, apply the Sun & Shade formula, and water for guaranteed results. With proper care, this easy 3-step preparation and formula keeps seed in place on hard to seed areas such as slopes and hills: guaranteed.

I prepared the area to be reseeded as per instructions. After 2 weeks there was only a 20% germination at most. I again prepared the area even using Scotts top soil. After 17 days there was zero germination. The area was prepared correctly and watered as it needed. In the fall I will go to plan B.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After doing some repair work around my home I had several areas that needed the grass repaired. I raked the areas and I covered it with Scotts EZ Seed Patch & Repair Sun and Shade. Watered as directed and normal rain did the rest. The areas are nice and green and no more bare spots. It was very easy to use. Better than just regular grass seed.

Not pleased. In direct competition, same area of the lawn, same day, etc., the competitor (Pennington) outperformed your product hands down. Based on your advertising, maybe I don't have enough concrete in my lawn. Additionally your product was more expensive.

I used a 40lb bag to reseed an area affected by bugs. Followed directions explicitly and got great results in an area that's difficult to grow. Although I planted later than usual (after Labor Day) grass is coming in well. I have used this product in the past and have some advice. Make sure that you thoroughly till the soil down to 2" for strong root growth. Keep lightly watering once a day after the grass is 2" high to allow other types of seeds in the mix to germinate. If you stop watering too soon some of the new grass will die back and other seeds will not germinate.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's been raining here alot so it dried out so I went out to the areas I had for the ez grass seed so I rough up the ground real good and put the ez grass seed down went done super eas but we got a half inch of rain that night and washed the mulch right out and left the seed all bare so I took my rake out fan it across the seed and now I got some grass up I've been a landscaper for 30 plus years and a degree in Horticulture
