  • It works.
Size: 5.6 lb.
Follow the directions, water, and you will have grass. My dog tore up my backyard grass wise, and just looked terrible. Bought this bag, spread the seed around. Watered often, recommends twice a day. Got a fair amount of rain after I laid the seed, so that may have helped. About a week in you can see sprouts, around that two week mark it was growing well. Patchy, and seems slow. But it does grow. Can't control how it grows or patches. As for weeds, your outside, you may get weeds. It happens. I'm satisfied with the product. Will eventually buy another bag or two to cover a few other areas. ... show more

  • Works extremely well
Size: 5.6 lb.
I hardly review any products but I wanted to make sure I left a review this time around. The rapid grass fescue mix works well and far exceeded my expectations. Make sure you till your soil, spread the seed, rake the seed into the soil and...water, water, water. I have full, thick, grass, growing in just under 2 weeks. I made it a point to water every evening (not over watering, though), keeping that soil moist to allow the seeds to germinate. It's been pretty sunny and hot out in Los Angeles the past few weeks, so I'm sure that helped a ton as well. In any event, this seed has helped fill in bald spots and empty spots, giving my lawn that full, green, lush, look. The seed helped me save a ton of money that I otherwise would have spent on sod. ... show more

  • Good seed
Size: 16 lb.
I broadcasted this seed last fall as an overseeding project for my lawn. I had pretty decent germination by broadcasting with a spreader. In some areas where I didn't need complete overseeding I tossed the seed out by hand. I didn't really notice any improvement over other fescue seeds. It came up like any seed I've put down. I've got some hard spots where grass has died and I didn't rake them up before broadcasting, hoping the seed might find a home anyway and it didn't work in those areas. That's my fault for being lazy! It's a good product, but if this costs more than other grass seed, I wouldn't spend more for this particular product. ... show more

  • Product that finally worked!
Size: 5.6 lb.
For the past 28 years, I have tried unsuccessfully maintaining a beautiful lawn to complement my wife's stunning gardens on our one-acre property. I experimented with various grass seed brands, including some expensive options, but with no success. However, this past summer, I decided to try to improve my lawn’s appearance again and purchased Scotts Turf Builder Rapid Grass Tall Fescue Mix. To minimize potential financial losses if it didn't work, I bought only one small bag and seeded a section of our lawn that struggled to grow thick grass. This area included a small dirt hill that was particularly resistant to grass growth. I carefully followed the package's instructions. I raked out all the dead matter and adhered to the spreading guidelines. I paid particular attention to the watering recommendations. Within three weeks, delicate, soft grass began to sprout throughout the entire section, and a month and a half later, the area was lush and green, including the bare hillside. I plan to use this seed again for the rest of the lawn. The manufacturer advises that the seed is treated with an anti-fungicide (Mefenoxam). Therefore, it’s crucial to read the label carefully and follow the planting, watering, and cleanup recommendations. Since my dog likes to dig in the soil with her mouth, I decided to err on the side of caution by keeping her off the seeded section for three weeks. ... show more

  • Zero stars, didn't grow.
Size: 16 lb.
Didn't grow. Very disappointed. I followed instructions. Even put some dirt over the seeds. Kept them watered. All that grew was weeds, no grass. I planed them about a week after they arrived. Watered them for three weeks and I have finally accepted that they are not going to grow. So now that it's been a month, I missed the return window by two days. I definitely will not be buying this one again. ... show more

  • More weeds than grass and uneven results
Size: 5.6 lb.
Scotts Turf Builder Rapid Grass Tall Fescue Mix was easy to apply with a handheld Scotts spreader. Ground prep, seeding and watering schedule were straight forward. The results, however, were uneven, even where soil composition was the same. The bottom of one slope that had been resistant to healthy grass growth did very well; beginning to show growth after a couple of weeks and filed in within four. A similar section, with similar treatment, started to show very thin growth after four weeks, and appears not to be thickening. Several patch spots resulted in no new grass growth at all, and one 4x12 section filled in solely with weeds, despite being weeded, turned over and composted two weeks before seeding. I am still in search of a good product. ... show more

  • I love this grass seed!
Size: 5.6 lb.
I needed/wanted plush, thick grass. I live in Oklahoma and was trying to find something that could handle the very hot sunny days during the summer with watering at night a few times a week. I've been so pleasantly surprised by this product!! I went in sort of blind, fingers crossed, hoping I'd done enough research when I bought this. Not only did the grass FLOURISH and look pretty but it actually lasted through the VERY VERY COLD winter!!!! I could not believe it! I've had SEVERAL compliments and people have asked me what I used bc they've tried EVERYTHING under the sun in this crazy hot & freezing weather without much success. The only downside is the price! Very pricey! However, I looked up this product at Lowe's and realized I can get much larger bags for a MUCH better price. ... show more
