For years we had weeds as lawn in our backyard. I got tired of looking at my ugly lawn that I couldn't use. I decided to start from scratch. I did my research and used Scotts Sun and Shade and Scotts Turf Builder Starter Lawn. I prepared the soil, put down the seed and starter lawn, and watered, watered, watered. It wasn't until about 3 weeks that I started seeing good growth. Every morning I was excited to go in the backyard and see how much had grown. I did have a lot of patches and threw down another round of seed at about 4 weeks. My husband is very proud of my work. I am a 59 year old woman and did almost all of the work on my own. My family now loves going in our backyard everyday. We now get birds, butterflies, and bees visiting us every day. These pictures were taken at 6 weeks from the day I put down the seed.

I love the color and depth of the grass. It's plush and our back yard is beautiful with a catch. However, it says a 40lb bag covers 8000sqft from a fresh build. I've used probably 120lbs on my small yard (1200 sqft) over a couple of months and it's still not as thick as you'd expect with that amount of seed. My buddy who I recommended to use this seed has had the same pros and cons. I think just 80% of the seed is bad but the 20% is great.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our side yard is fenced in for our dogs and we have two large oak trees that don't allow in much sunlight. Due to these factors it is next to impossible to get anything to grow there. Decided to take a chance on the sun and shade seed mix and boy was I ever so glad I did. Within a matter of days we had tiny little grass seedlings sprouting! It's been a month now and the grass is still thriving , I'm very excited about this seed!!

After our lawn was ripped up for some sump pump work, the contractor seeded the area. It was so spotty that I decided to reseed with Scotts turf builder sun and shade mix. The results were far superior to what the contractor was using. In both cases, I was watering regularly. The Scotts seed that I purchased also had a rebate which made it a great value. Love that I'm not getting lots of weeds coming up with the grass seed.

Used this product by first prepping the area, adding loose black soil, raked in seed mix. Watered religiously. I'm a gardener I know how to plant things. I've got a few grass sprigs after about 4 weeks. I'm so disappointed and have used Scotts products for years. A gardener likes to plant things and watch them grow, this was a huge frustrating disappointment. I"m just going to buy sod and find a new fertilizer for the rest of the lawn.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Since I was a kid my dad has always used scotts, with good success. Not because my Dad used scotts not I have to, but that Scotts products really work. My neighbors spedd thousands for landscapers and chemical companies per year to keep their lawns looking great, but go down to my local hardware store in town pick up some Scotts and beautiful lawn here we come! Like Scotts turfbuilder products I've always used scotts seed. It works the best and price is good. I've used special garden center seed but hasn't produced a lawn that Scotts does. Keep on do 'in what you do 'in Scotss and my kids and grand kids will be using your products for years to come.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used Scotts Turf Builder Grass Seed Sun & Shade Mix to fill in bare spots, and it is a great product with superior results. It's very easy to use and a nice value for a quality product that works. I love Scotts products and have been a huge fan for years.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great product! Has good coverage and is very durable. Watch where you buy your product. Many retail stores carry old seed from last year or even older and it will not germinate and be the great product that it is.
