Works just like it says!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is so simple to use, as long as you follow the directions it’s a piece of cake. In a matter of two weeks time the grass has grown tremendously. I also love the fact that in the sun and shade it still grows just as well. This was a huge bonus for me. This product is well worth the money spent and I’d totally recommend it.

Worked Great

I reseeded a section of our backyard that had very little grass. I aerated and loosened the top inch of the soil. I also added 3 pages of Scotts topsoil. After spreading, I raked the seed into the soil and covered the area with straw (we live in the woods with rodents and birds galore). Six weeks later and the new grass is plush and thick. I've mowed it 3 times. I also used some leftover seed to repair a dozen urine spots, and it has worked well filling these in. I'm pleased with this product and will continue using it.

Avoid at all cost

This seed is garbage. I had roughly 800 square feet of areea to grow grass. Applied Easy Seed to 1/2 half of and rapid grow to the rest. Easy seed came in quickly and established itself well. It has been 10 days and the rapid seed has yet to germinate. Avoid this product at all cost.

Using to fill in spots.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This will go down in the front yard along the edge of driveway where everyone seems to drive. Quick growing should be helpful to maintain the green while the rest grows in. Best yard on the block by far

Unbelievable!!!!
on July 27, 2023
Posted by: Mickey11105
To all the complainers, we planted this last saturday afternoon on surface, did NOT rake in, watered with sprinkler system for 1 hour initially, then twice a day thereafter for 30 minutes each time. This morning, 4 1/2 days later, we have small new grass 1/2 inch tall everywhere. Unbelievable results!!!!

Used it on some extremely dry and clay like TN soil. It took a few weeks to really begin getting thick and lush, but it did! I took plenty of care to water it and the effort was not wasted.
