Great Grass seed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have three large dogs who have a track made in the yard near the fence line. I was able to quickly spread this grass seed and it sprouted in just a few days. I liked that it covered both the sunny and shady spots without having to change bags of seed out.

agreat for Fall reseed!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Applied this product in early October after thatching and prepping lawn. I watered it every day with my sprinkler system. Growth started in about 14 days. had great growth and green lawn by 1st week November. This seed did the job.

nothing happened

I purchased above product and starter fertilizer and planted it on Aug 28,2019. I also covered the seed with 8 bales of straw to help the ground stay moist. My neighbor planted a different grass seed a week and a half later than i did. My grass at best today is one inch high and very thin and my neighbor's is 4 inches high. Our soils are the same but he did not use a starter fertilizer or straw. I was very dissapointed with your product as I have started 3 lawns in my yard and have never had a problem in past years. I have used Estate sun and shade seed on my yard starts in previous years and have had good results. I have heard your commercials about having the best yard in the neighborhood, So I used yours. I am sorry I changed to your seed as all the yards I planted I did it the same way as I did this year.

We apologize for the inconvenience you have experienced with Scotts Grass Seed Sun & Shade Mix. Using more than 1/4" of straw can smother the grass seed. Contact us to continue discussing your encounter. We are available at the following link: http://tinyurl.com/mds8zo5

Green Grass again

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a large tree in back yard that grass won't grow under. My yard is tall fescue. I would on several occasions sew tall fescue seed under tree. The grass would grow for a while and die out. This time I used Turf Builder Grass Seed Sun and Shade mix. I prepared the site and sewed the seed covering with straw. Watered the seed daily till germinated. I now have a green lawn again under this tree. Now my whole yard looks great.

Amazing results!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My lawn is finally thick and healthy looking again. It looks like a brand new lawn. It's a beautiful rich green color and soft on my feet. I am extremely pleased with the results. I highly recommend this product.

Great results if you follow directions

I plan on doing a complete renovation on my lawn this fall. So, in deciding what grass to go with, I killed several 2000 sq/ft spots and planted them in different seed blends. Some of the blends were so called elite varieties that cost much more than this Scotts blend. I have been watering twice a day for 15 days and right now the Scotts is head and shoulders above the rest. I'm attaching 2 photos. The first one was right before planting and the second is after 15 days and the first mowing. The key to success with any grass seed planting is to top dress and keep it moist.

Bag was split about 3 inches on back. Got seed all over the flour. There was no damage to the shipping box so i think it was split before packaging.

Be sure to use straw to cover

We bought these and did not get good results. I think it may have been our fault because we failed to cover them. It was a costly mistake.
