Didn't Work

Used exactly as instructions stated. Watered correctly. And worked in about 40% of the places I put it. I spent more money for this than other products because it was "guaranteed to work". It didn't!

We are sorry to hear that this product did not yield as much new grass as you had hoped for. We understand that it can be frustrating to put the effort into seeding and then only see minimal results. Temperature plays a major role in all seeding endeavors. For Cool Season Grasses (Bluegrass, Ryegrass, and Fescue) Soil temperatures must be at least 55 degrees (+12.7 Celsius) for grass seed to germinate. The warmer the soil, the faster the germination. This generally requires daytime temperatures consistently in the 65+ degrees (18.3 Celsius) range. Also, make sure the ground is still visible when EZ Seed has been applied. If the seed was applied to thickly, the seed on the bottom will still germinate, just gently water the area for 2 minutes to allow the water to reach the seeds We want you to be confident in our products, this is why we offer a product guarantee.

Very easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very easy to apply, much better than the paper mulch that blows all over and sticks to your shoes. This is easy and clean.

Scotts EZ Seed

I used EZ Seed to repair several spots where I had Stumps removed. I put new top soil in area and applied EZ Seed. I watered daily and grass came up thick in 5 days.

FANTASTIC RESULTS

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Couldn't be easier. Prepare the soil, sprinkle it on the bare spots, water daily, and in two weeks the bare spots are gone. It's that easy. Great product, Scotts!

No grass grew, at all!

We wanted to try this product on, probably an 8' by 2' patch of our yard to regrow the grass, and we used the entire container and not one blade of grass grew. We watered and tilled the dirt and it still grew nothing.

We are sorry for the disappointment you have experienced with the results of your recent seeding effort. 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. 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.

Fast acting!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I spread the product under a tree that we have to re-seed every year. Watered and in about 7 days, saw new grass coming up!

Best grass seed you can purchase in the NW.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have planted this in shaded areas in our yard and it is the only grass seed that will grow successfully.

Good product! Works as advertised

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Used the EZ Seeds in early April and started seeing sprouts withing a week. Should have used this product before. Will use again in the Fall. Unlikely will use another product in the future.

Just what I needed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The product worked great under a tree that killed my lawn last year. It filled in the patch and is growing great. Easy to use and very effective.

No germination!!! Wow a Scott's product?!

Your product doesn't work. Really annoyed by the copy paste response from prior poor reviews, I live in sunny Southern California. My lawn is warm and is watered via sprinkler system. I am surprised that it's been 2 weeks with very poor results.

We are sorry to hear that you did not get the results that you expected from Scotts Turf Builder EZ Seed. We don't mean to disappoint you with our responses to others who have had similar problems with this product. However, in most cases a lack of germination is caused by one or a combination of four issues: temperatures, moisture, the use of herbicides or that the product was applied at more than 1/8 of an inch thick. With the exception of the use of herbicides, correcting the problem will help the seed to germinate. We offer our product guarantee because we understand that it is disappointing to go through the effort of seeding and not get the results that you expected. If you would like to discuss your problem further or if you would like to receive a refund for the product that you purchased, please use the following link to contact us http://tinyurl.com/7ag7a3n.
